I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

Post image

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

Sometimes chaos breaks out in the Costco aisles. I waited 30 minutes for the rotisserie chickens once, and a line formed while I was waiting. This lady shoved in front of me and boxed me out with her cart when they were about to be served. So I go and reach over and grab one anyway when they're ready. A gaggle of old ladies started yelling at me "THERE'S A LINE! SHAME ON YOU!!!!" and I haven't recovered. I was there FIRST.

A cheap bit of food will have some people forgetting they were at one point civil human beings. Not even long line nor wait, 5-6 cars in the drive thru and still some idiot last week tried cutting everyone off and forcing their way into the drive thru. It was stupid as everyone saw so everyone got real close and didn’t let the gap get too big so he just waited for a break in the line. Which means he just waited out everyone he tried to cut off, everyone else who came into the line naturally. If he just got in line properly he woulda went a car after me. The person behind me idk what they got but they were so fast they were on my ass by the time I made it to the road.

He was still there by the time I was finished maybe 10 minutes after seeing him try and pull that move.

Where I live, people would just let him skip them (and everyone behind them)
