When I get to a cashier, I want everything to go as fast as possible. If it's inefficient, and it's my fault, I feel a lot of anxiety that I am either:
A) holding up people in line behind me (even if no one is in line behind me)
B) stopping the cashier from doing other productive work (even if it's obvious they couldn't care less)
If I'm shopping with my wife, and then the cashier asks something like, "Do you have a member card/points card?"... Well, if I didn't have it out and ready to go, I'd just say, "no."
My wife on the other hand, will start rummaging through her purse looking for one, even if she doesn't have one!! At this point my anxiety skyrockets..
We've had a few arguments on this subject (most recently yesterday)... When I think about it logically, it all just seems ridiculous. Why should I get so anxious? I don't know.. I just do.. But it's not logical...
Does this sound at all familiar?
