He Meant Well



July 2, 2020


Some grocery stores have implemented a checkout system of having people wait in one line and then directing them to whichever register is available. Department stores have been doing it for years, but people aren’t used to it in food stores.

As I was at the store today, we were all waiting in line to be directed to a register when a confused woman with several items in her cart started to cut in. The man ahead of me graciously said, “Go ahead, I’m in no hurry.” A look around might have tipped him off that some of the people in line behind him were.


But he meant well.
