Several weeks ago I went to a nearby CVS to get a flu shot and got to listen to a middle aged toddler. 
Note that this took place during the middle of the day and the store had fewer then five customers wandering around.
I was waiting in the waiting area opposite the pharmacy that was being staffed by a ONE pharmacist and ONE pharmacy tech. Also, only ONE of the registers at the Pharmacy was operational (for those not familiar with CVS, they also have three/four registers at the front of the store, there was NO line at those).
A woman was waiting for the Pharmacist to complete her order when Middle Aged Toddler (MAT) walks in. MAT walks up and stands behind the woman and starts to get that "Agitated Customer Look" TM and starts to fidget. Once the woman thanks the Pharmacist for her help, the man stomps forward and has his tantrum.

MAT: "Did you not see me waiting here?"
P: "Yes Sir, I did. How can I help you?"
MAT: "Why didn't she" (points the tech) "help me?"
P": "I'm terribly sorry sir, but that register is broken."
MAT: "YOUR NOT SORRY!" he says in the tone of a 3 year old who didn't get the cookie he wanted.
They went around and around like that for several minutes before the man stormed out. The pharmacist looked at us and shrugged, he didn't even mention what he needed.
