Grocery Store Rage Blues

Can't say that I wasn't warned. As I neared the entrance, a departing lady warned me: "You don't want to go in there!"

"Road rage" on display in the grocery store over long, slow moving checkout lines and a sign prominently displayed for all waiting in place to see stating: "If there are more than three people in line, we'll open another register." Apparently though, it wasn't meant to be taken literally. Maybe the store manager thought that the sentiment alone was good enough for us? That we'd then happily overlook high prices and long lines. There was one guy in particular who was letting his true feelings about it all be known. As in Loudly!! And he had no intents of getting in one dig and letting the matter die. It quickly became an awkward situation. It might have helped had a perceptive store employee comprehended the gist of the guys feelings and lost that sign.
