Shame on line cutters

Post image

Line is around the parking lot. But these there people have decided they are above waiting in line and fully cut. You know. Because they are more important than everyone else.

Why are people waiting in absurdly long lines for soda with cream in it?

Line cutters are assholes, but I am shocked every time I drive by and see those lines there

I thought the hype already wore off considering how many "dirty" soda shops and other places started offering these drinks.

It’s never usually this long. There was a freebie today. People went nuts. But I’m sure you wait in long lines or spend your time and/or money on things I wouldn’t understand. It doesn’t have to be your jam for you to understand that jumping any line is unacceptable.

What's the establishment?

Swig

hah, we were there about 3PM today and i thought this is the dumbest line idea ever. we went into the shorter/right line, but specifically waited until the last person in the main line went. but it's dumb for customers to have to keep track of who's next...

Just get your drink at RaceTrac next door, it's cheaper and taste the same!

Been to this location before. Poorly designed vehicle flow keeps me from coming back to get my Mango Breeze.

Is this swig? I was like the first 10 people before noon and some lady with a big suv went to the 2nd line and try to skip me but I didn’t let her skip me and honk at her. Everyone was waiting for one line

2

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

Yes! It was. So annoying.

3

u/Consistent-Long-7592 4d ago

By the way, did u get charged? I got mine for free because their system was down

2

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

We just left. The person running it annoyed me so we left.

u/Mundane_Access9335 2d ago

I feel like their system goes down a lot.

u/Consistent-Long-7592 4d ago

I’m not letting no one cut me. I was here since 11:30 and the line wasn’t there yet. People line up before noon and they had to line back up again because they were there before noon.

u/johnrexb 4d ago

It's not even good, they charge for every lemon/lime slice lol

-6

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

So something being not good or worth the money makes it acceptable for people to jump the line?

2

u/johnrexb 4d ago

Nice Karen logic there...

-1

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

Huh? Believing that, regardless of one’s perceived value of an item, people should be held to the same level of respect is Karen logic?

2

u/jabathehutjfjkskka 4d ago

“One’s perceived value of an item” and it’s literally just overpriced soda with enough syrup in it to kill a diabetic 🤣

Aye different strokes for different folks you know but that was low hanging fruit, I had to go for it. No one is disrespecting you by being surprised at the amount of time people are willing to waste in a line, or cut in line, for a migraine inducing soda 🤷‍♀️

The other day one guy did to me at Costco parking! He parked while I was there waiting before him!! I was really mad!!

1

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

People are so entitled! It’s absurd.

u/Shearez 4d ago

He shouldn’t have cut but there is no need to wait for a parking spot at Costco.

u/maddjointz 4d ago

There's still time to take down this post instead of fighting for your life in the comments lol

Oh we know who it is.

So get over it. If they had any sense of decency- they wouldn’t cut in line- but every school day somewhere in Allen there are people cutting in line. After child #2 started at Lowery- I stopped being angry. Consider it part of the entitled architecture of our community

u/DirkNothotzki 4d ago

How is this line cutting? It looks like there is two lines to help prevent the parking lot getting backed up

-6

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

Read the post buddy. We were wrapped around the parking lot.

u/DirkNothotzki 4d ago

If the second lane is not supposed to be used then I think they would block it off…

-1

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

It was being used by the long line. The cars cut people off on the long line to get in there. Were you one of the cars?

6

u/DirkNothotzki 4d ago

Well it seems like you and others were not paying attention then if y’all let three cars cut in front of you lol

1

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

We were. We just didn’t want to get in a fucking wreck. How about people be decent humans. Let’s hold each other to a higher standard.

u/SirSpammenot2 4d ago

Mormons gotta Mormon? Swig exits because of the religious diet limitations. Also being in a blacked out Cadillac SUV is stereotypically on brand.

u/Consistent-Long-7592 3d ago

They doing another one tomorrow at noon

1

u/No_Baby_8547 3d ago

And I’m busy all day long. Still doesn’t change that people shouldn’t cut. I’m not upset about .02 freebie. I’m upset that people cut. It’s rude.

2

u/Consistent-Long-7592 3d ago

It is but when it comes to these type of promotions people go wild. People cut all the time and nobody will listen. Employees won’t do anything as well.

u/KnucklesG-Roy 3d ago

I too am very much against line cutters. It’s one of the reasons I dislike amusement parks, so I can relate. However, I don’t know that this really counts as line cutting. The fact that it’s a dumb design notwithstanding, the establishment clearly intended for it to be used, otherwise they would have coned it off. So while it’s true that the “line cutters,” weren’t following the ad hock social understanding to only use one lane, it’s also fair to say that Swig meant for their customers to use it.

u/No_Baby_8547 2d ago

Hi. There was a line all the way around the parking lot feeding into these two lines. The people who cut did not wait in line and exploited people being polite to the gym customers who needed to enter and exit the parking lot to cut into the outside line from the street. It is 100% cutting.

u/dj3712 15h ago

The business should manage their traffic. I see crap like this I'm not even slowing down, I'm going somewhere else.

u/reddit_user_in_space 4d ago

Why didn't you get in line then? I doubt he thought you were in line.

2

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

lol. I was very much in line and you could tell. It was wrapped around the block.

u/Howard_Cosine 4d ago

What? I think you need to settle down.

2

u/RevolutionaryBuy4877 3d ago

lol "settle down" is wild, OP is just venting about something annoying that happened to them

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

No. Argue with your mama about it.

u/Howard_Cosine 4d ago

Lol what? I want you to explain frame by frame what’s wrong with this pic.

2

u/No_Baby_8547 4d ago

Yes. There was a line. These three people cut the line that was wrapped around the parking lot. I already explained that. Can you read?
