My husband was at Tim Horton's the other day. He was kind enough to stop and grab me a coffee on his way home from work. The second he's in the door, he knows its going to be a long wait. The line is huge, and they appear to be understaffed. The three kids they've got behind the counter are working their butts off, but everyone seems to be ordering sandwiches and stuff, so everything's taking twice as long as it normally would. He thinks to himself, no big deal, I'll just wait.
The two harpies in front of him did not have this attitude. They spent the ENTIRE time in line bitching about how long it was taking. They blamed the wait squarely on the poor staff members behind the counter, who in my husband's words "were really hauling ass" to get the line down.
Here's the kicker. They get to the front of the line, and when the girl asks for their order, they DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT. They haven't looked at the menu. They spent the entire ten minutes in line bitching and moaning about the wait, and then as soon as its their turn, they hold up the entire line another five minutes deciding on what they want.
My husband couldn't stand it, it was so frickin' ridiculous, he started to laugh out loud. And then everyone else who had been forced to listen to these women started to laugh.
The harpies started to glare at him, because they knew he was laughing at them, but he's pretty sure that they had no idea why.
