Sorry, I didn't think I needed to outright state that I'm not obstructing others. I assumed, it would seem incorrectly, that that went without saying!

If you'd like you can assume I also block people at the baggage claim and take my time when I'm at the front of the passport control queue with people behind me. I don't, obviously, but if you're going to start off assuming shiftiness why stop at the basics! Take it the whole way! Presume I'm incapable of using a luggage trolley too! Why not!

I mean, I was mostly kidding when I made the original comment, but less so when you seemed to double down. Either way, you don't sound like the problem people I am referring to. No harm meant.

That's fair enough, thanks for being chill about it! Opinions about this stuff are all over the shop in this thread so it's hard to be sure. When I learn I'm part of a given problem I try to mend my ways but on this I feel like it's a lot of other people that could do with learning a lesson.

Most of us don't need to be in such a rush - some people do though! Get out of their way!

I try to remind myself that I'm just not that important. An extra few minutes just don't matter much for me in the grand scheme of things. Those few minutes might make a difference to someone with a dying relative or similar - I'm happy to simmer down and wait my turn (or even more, giving up my turn so others can go before me). Hence why being called part of the problem is a bit upsetting - I'm trying to be the kind of person I'd want to meet!

Makes sense. Hopefully I'll convey my humor better in the future.
