(It’s a busy day, and we already have several customers lined up for the registers. A customer at the back of the line is trying to get a coworker’s attention.)
Customer: “Hey! Excuse me! I want to buy this!”
Coworker: “Yes, ma’am, but there are people in front of you. You’ll have to wait until they’re finished first.”
Customer: “What?! Why do they get to go first?”
Coworker: “Because they were here first?”
Customer: “Nuh-uh! You don’t know that!”
Coworker: “Yes, I do…”
(They go back and forth for a few minutes before my coworker gives up.)
Coworker: “Ma’am, they get to go first because they got dibs on the registers. ”
Customer: “Oh. Well, can I get dibs after them?”
Coworker: “Well, okay.”
Customer: “Thanks!”
