    Of course it would, everyone else in the queue would disappear, looking over their shoulder at the weirdo shouting in the middle of the shop.:rotfl:

    If i was on the 1 till with 20 people standing in line and the guy at the back starting causing a commotion I would probably call security and have him removed

    So yes shouting at me to get a move on would have an effect (Just not the one you were after ;) )

    You've never actually worked in a shop have you (hint - drag me off my break and then shout at me for a queue that's not even my fault and I will most likely end up punching you in the face).

    People who works in shops aren't some underling slaves you can shout at just because you feel like it, contrary to most peoples beliefs they are also human and aren't paid for you to shout at...

    He actually calls people who work in shops oiks, he'll even confirm that when he comes on next and reads this. He's one of the most ignorant people in this country.
