You are right about cash machines. Some people seem to spend an eternity on it when I am in a queue.
It's either the elderly stood at one too high or too low for them to adequately see the buttons and commands of, their withered arms and gnarled fingers never arrowing directly once they've worked something out, or a generally poor-looking person who perhaps has three cards, looking for a dot of cash on any of them and wants to waste more paper on the slow-printing slips that are inadequate in detail for any great ponderance.
If stood in the rain brollyless and waiting for more than a minute, then i always mutter something about the person arranging a mortgage. It's not big or clever but it's what i do.
