Okie dokie. Another tale of awesome. (tm)
So I'm making keys. Okay. I finish making this guy's keys and send him on his merry way. Lo and behold, there are no fewer than three people standing behind the desk, pushing and shoving each other to get their keys made first, because apparently, all three are in the same urgent rush.
All three claimed that they were first, and then they all fought each others' claims of firstiness, (lol) Then they did what I consider to be a grievous threat:
They made me choose.
So here's who was waiting:
Can anyone guess who I took first? Nobody looked like they were in any mood for waiting while I asked them King Solomon questions, and I don't think I could have had anything to split in thirds and let each person keep a third. Heheh.

So here's who was waiting:
- A 40'ish year old woman, rather pudgy, with a frown of impatience and near disgust on her face. Appeared to be limping a tad. Had a store handbasket stuffed with goods. Had one hell of a glare. Frown made her look ugly, although if she were smiling, it would have been a sparkling smile. You know the kind.
- An elderly'ish man in his mid 60s, roughly. Dressed like a Brooklynite, with that flop hat and a fuzzy itchy brown overcoat. Didn't have anything in his hands. Was leaning on the counter a little, looking intently at me with one eyebrow raised, as if to say "Your move, buckeroo."
- A rather young'ish 28(+?) year old dark-haired woman with a young male child by her side. Couldn't have been older than 5. Her arms were stuffed with goods, and she was shouting at me to hurry up and get her out of the store.
