Reflections on the Woman Cutting in Line at the Airport

1. That she is rude
2. That she is uncaring
3. That she has defective math skills, and does not realize that 29 is a later number than 26
4. That she is unskilled in logic, and does not realize that her A29 means one and only one person might be behind her in the line ending with A30
5. That I am petty
6. That I am an over-stickler for “rules”
7. That we are both tired and want to be on our way on our flight already delayed 90 minutes
8. That her centimeter-long nails make it difficult for her to read numbers
9. That she gave up her window seat when asked
