Checkout Observation: Don’t Want To Wait In Line?

Went to the supermarket and there were huge lines at the checkout.

One of the manager asked me to follow her to a counter with the "CLOSED" sign and started to process my items. She asked me to leave the "CLOSED" sign up, I guess she was just grabbing people who have been waiting for a while to help and relieve the queues.

Out of nowhere this Asian lady suddenly came up to our counter and started queuing, the manager politely asked her to queued at one of the other counters till she is called.

The Asian lady then protested and said "I've only got one item, can’t you just process it?" While holding up her juice.

The manager replied, "Sorry, I've got to be fair, there are a lot of people who have been waiting longer than you."

The lady then proceeded to stare at the manager before suddenly slamming her juice onto the counter and stomping off.

The supermarket manager froze for a second, we were both confused as to why the Asian lady got so angry. Was it because she was not able to cut in line?…
