I went to a local bus station in my city to reserve a bus ticket today. It seems there so many people are visiting my city. The station is so crowded and the local people needed to fall-in-line. Waiting in line is the worst thing I can’t deal with. I don’t have the choice since it is the only chance for me to have reservation. All of a sudden, a man jumped its queues. In fact, I just ignored it and let him go in front of me.

 At this day, I don’t want to argue with someone. However, a woman behind me cried out loud and pin pointing to the man in front of me. It was really a scene and the woman keeps on shouting to everyone and aiming to humiliate the man. Because of such scene, the man just walked away and didn’t say anything. It seems he admitted to himself the mistake done. Moreover, the woman is still cursing to this man. I felt the woman wants the attention of others and still shouting on the top of her lungs.

For such occasion or incident of lining up to buy a ticket for a ride or transportation or even in paying my electric bill, I never take any advantage of ignoring the long queue and make myself stay ahead of those who come first before me. I have to respect everyone. In fact, I had met that experience too. It’s the woman. I myself personally told in a polite manner that she should reconsider those who come ahead with her to stay behind or fall in line to the last person in line. I added that everyone is in a hurry but they have to observe the sequence of the queue; that is, whosoever comes late should join the last line.

What is the used of falling in line when everyone could just insert at his will? He should observe the protocol, the sequence without taking advantage of others. It’s good if he won’t be cursed, humiliated or whatever; but it is most likely that he would be insulted, mocked, derided for such disrespectful act.

I guess I would’ve done something similar – maybe remove the cursing and shouting if it ever happened to me and I am in the mood to get in a “fight”, LOL! It is such a shame when simple things like falling in line is being ignored by people and for what? It is a very simple rule to follow and if we let one person ignore it, the tendency is that more people will!

I think the woman was right to call it off but I just hoped she stopped shouting when the man left to walk away. There’s really no need to curse and humiliate the man more.

Maybe the woman is having a bad day? Or maybe she a rule abiding citizen that if it is wrong to steal a place in line, it is wrong. However, to stress yourself knowing the man already walk out on the line and start cursing him is such an over reaction. She must have save her energy to more potential things that will give her growth and not stick to the feeling like she is going to kill someone. Maybe an anger management issue too, remind me of someone….

I like to “kill them with kindness”  meaning being really nice!!  However, I’ve verbally expressed myself at a Walmart store.  My husband and I cashed our checks and out ALL the money on our Walmart prepaid card.  We then did grocery shopping as we had ALWAYS done every two weeks. Went to the cash register, the clerk rang up everything and told us that the card was declined!!  I came unglued!! lol

@nakitakona13 The man should feel ashamed of his act. In the long run, he deserves to be cursed by this woman. Since he started the cause of cursing. I hope this kind of behavior will be changed for this fellow. If not, there is something wrong with him.

@cessy08 That is also my concern. The woman should stopped shouting since it creates more scene in the area. I do think that the man should study again self-discipline 101.

@grecy095 I think it is really an overrated reaction for this woman. I also assume she’s a bit uneducated woman and being tactless is her personality.

@4cryingoutloud I also did the same thing. I just remain calm and let this man do his thing. But then, she was caught in act by the woman. Thus, I just witnessed the whole thing. It is like seeing a movie shoot in the area.

@shavkat or maybe having the worst day of her day, or maybe uneducated, we don’t mean to be prejudice however, this kind of person is  pushing us to be one. This kind of person will able to meet their match in the future.

June 17, 2016 at 6:45 am

@grecy095 I also don’t feel being judgmental for the woman. I had perceived her uneducated because that’s the truth behind her behavior at that time.

@shavkat/

This is a common scene in public buses, queuing up in restaurants or fast food restaurants, ticket booth.

You can see tons of different people attitude daily.

Some are kind or civilize, some are ignorance or simply uncultured like the man you had mentioned.

Some are arrogant and impulsive like the woman you had mentioned.

I think that people is getting impatient these days.

Just can’t wait and cannot accept that another person who jumps queue get what he wanted instead of you.

You may find it unfair, injustice but then hey, in our modern society, there are many unfair people who did unfair actions and GOD is observing, right?

Well, that man got his bad day then !

@peachpurple Modernization is really changes one’s behavior. We meet different sets of people and possess uniqueness in its personality, either good or bad. The man had his bad treatment because of the wrongdoing. He deserves to have a bad day at that time.

@Shavkat, That woman was only waiting for the right timing of her so long anger, hehehe.

June 17, 2016 at 4:13 pm

Well, I could be wrong but I think the woman was trying to get everybody “mad at the guy”. Well, I hope the guy learned his lesson and won’t do it again.

June 17, 2016 at 5:08 pm

I have a second thought. I would rather give him the benefit of the doubt. I have to ask him why is it that he is not considering others who have lined up ahead of him. It is not good to condemn a person right away because he is rude, impolite, discourteous. Finding the reason from him why he is behaving differently is helping him indirectly. And offering help to others is making yourself humble and approved to people’s eyes. The Bible says, “what you have done to the least of your brethren, you also doing it to the Lord.”

@shavkat I agree as people who are educated have manners, but there are some instances they are pushed to react to situations like that and also, I cannot say only educated person, the one who finished school only has manners as I know a lot of people not even went to school but able to treat other people good. But of course, we expect them to act with manners all the time.

June 18, 2016 at 5:53 am

@cely The mood swing strikes in a perfect timing for her. She released her tension from within. lol

@cessy08 I do think she is encouraging others to have their piece to this guy. But it is not appropriate for me to do such behavior.

@nakitakona13 We need to follow a simple golden rule for this guy. This particular woman should talk the guy in a modest way and not to create a scene.

@grecy095 In some instances, there are some educated people cannot conceal their intense anger to others. It could be medical condition such as hypertension or due to stress-related reason.
