...and we don't take... cash

There is one line with a big sign above it that essentially means "quickpay" - you can only pay by scanning your badge. I'm waiting for Mike in the caf (next to the pepper & pepper), and he is in the "quickpay" line.

The guy 2 people in front of him is holding 3 precarious items - a fountain drink on bottom, a piece of cake (for breakfast?) in the middle, and another fountain drink on top. He very carefully sets them down, spreading them out, and then begins to fumble in his back pocket ... for his wallet. He eventually gets the too-big wallet out of the too-small pocket, opens it up, and begins rummaging inside FOR CASH. The now backed-up line rolls their eyes and shifts about anxiously, in a hurry. They glance pointedly at the sign. He picks through the cash, clumsily trying to pull the right bills out. And then he reaches into his front pocket AND PULLS OUT CHANGE! He's fumbling through the change in his hand, separating out the correct coins and pushing them to the side. He then gathers up the bills and the change and gingerly places it all in the cashier's hand. (This is agony! I'm outraged on everyone's behalf, mostly because this kind of thing bothers me more than most people - it's like taking 50 items into the 10 items or less checkout line and also paying with coupons and a check.) I also have to look away for a moment because I'm laughing so hard at the absurdity of it.

I turn around and she's checked out the next 2 people, and the guy is still at the front of the line, putting his other bills back into his wallet and folding it up. It probably took him another 5 minutes after we were long gone to put everything away, stack up his purchases and be on his way.

It was funnier because I wasn't in that line. I probably would've blown a gasket if I had been.
