Do I look like a pushover?!?

I probably wouldn't have blogged about this if it hadn't happened TWICE in one week.

Last week I was at the Gucci Giant and there was a guy in line behind me. I had put less than half of my food on the belt when he started to load his stuff onto the belt as well. I didn't want to say anything so instead I frantically started putting my food on the belt as soon as there was the smallest amount of room but I felt like I was racing against the clock. I didn't confront the guy because I thought that maybe he just didn't have a clue about grocery store ettiquette (you know the rule that says you let the person in front of you actually finish her shopping before you start in on her?). Anyway, I let it go and I actually forgot about it.

Until today.

I was in Seven Mile and the SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED!! This time it was a woman behind me. Once again, less than half of my food was out of my cart and she began loading her food. Once again, I remained silent. I don't know why but I figured that there was no use in my calling attention to it- what are the chances this exact woman will be behind me again in the grocery store, I didn't want to embarrass her. So once again I played the frantic game of catch up to try to get all my food on the belt before she completely took it over.

Anyway, I doubt I will end up saying anything when this happens again next week (because let's face it, IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN) but at this point I am really just wondering whether I give off that "walk all over me" vibe.
