In line at the post office, a woman at the counter ahead of me was picking up a package, and when the post office employee brought it, she said the woman would have to sign for it. This led to a long discussion, in which the woman wanted to know why she had to sign for it, and why she had been able to order things from that same company before without signing for it, and how could she in the future rig it so she would have to sign for it, and on ad nauseum. The employee kept saying that she didn't know, but that the woman would have to sign for it. Seriously, this went on for about 7 minutes. In the end, the woman was out of questions, but she still hadn't signed for it, so she had to be reminded to do so. It then took another 30 seconds for her to produce her address. She didn't seem to be developmentally delayed or anything, but blithely unaware that there was anyone behind her in line.
I think this is common in medical situations, by the way. People are upset if you're behind, but then they contribute substantially to the problem.
