So, the clerk finishes ringing up and bagging everything and says to the person, "That's be $24.67." It's like the customer never considered that she'd have to pay for the stuff. Only then does she open her bag and dig out her purse. God forbid she has to write a check, 'cuz then it's find the checks and find a pen. Others have money in hand while the clerk is ringing up the stuff or have the check 2/3 filled out before they get to the front of the line. This person seems surprised every time.

Oh guys, I totally agree!! And, your right, its always a woman!!! Then I love, after she writes the check, she reconciles the checkbook
before handing the check to the cashier. I don't think she has a "clue" how to speed things up.
Skip, I've never seen your example but I'm sure its happened plenty of times!!
Biggest Pet Peeve is grocery store lines!!! And I hear that Florida is worse than L.A., better take more Prozac!!!
