The tale of this outrageously pushy shopper went viral and really got people’s goat

As if wasn’t already irritating enough being stuck in a queue for the supermarket checkout, along comes this person in a tale that’s just gone wildly viral on Reddit.

We’re not sure this outrageously pushy shopper was being passive agressive, more like just plain old aggressive, and it really got people’s goat.

Only mildly infuriating? We salute the restraint of the original poster. Not everyone shared their good nature, however.

‘So, the person she wants to go ahead of has said no, so she thinks the cashier is the one who can overrule that denied request? Hilarious.’

‘I’ve had the cashier bloody say it was ok and I had to butt in and say ah no it isn’t I’m next. Pushy people get their way more often than not, hence why they are pushy.’

‘That is totally ridiculous. No way would I let someone with a cart full cut in front. In fact, I sometimes let people with only a few items in front of me if I have a cart full.

‘That lady was an inconsiderate, self-absorbed dick.’

‘It is probably good for her personality to be denied special treatment lol.’

‘I went to the post office on my lunch break once… Cutting it close and I had a guy behind me ask if he could go in front of me because he was in a hurry. I told him no because I was also pressed on time.

‘He proceeded to call me a bitch and harass me for the rest of my time in line with him. Some people can’t see outside their own ego bubble.’

‘I would’ve flopped on the ground like a soccer player if she rammed me with her cart.’

‘I would have done the same thing.

Once at Costco as I was waiting in line with a half full cart a man with a single book cut in front me like I wouldn’t notice. I politely told him I was in line, and he absolutely freaked out.

‘He kept saying he shouldn’t have to wait in line for a single item when people have full carts, then stormed off to another cashier and started yelling and pointing his finger at me.

‘If he had asked or if I had noticed him behind me with a single item I most certainly would have let him go ahead, but instead he tried to be sneaky, got caught, threw a tantrum, and ruined his own day.

‘I almost felt bad for him. Hope it was at least a good read.’

‘If shes in a rush she wouldn’t have a cart filled to the tippy top. She had the nerve to ask the cashier to skip the line after you declined her request is so infuriating 😨😨 people are nuts.’
