Who will stand in Queue

" I am having only one bread to be billed. It will take long time if I stand in the queue." . This was the reaction by a customer at 'more' when I asked him to follow the queue for billing. What am I standing here for". This was my answer to his reaction. It seems that, other than having the right to vote we have one more right of not following the queue.
One of the striking characteristics that every Indian share is that "We can never follow a queue...be it a ticket reservaion or movie booking or medical shop or ration shop". Like the British have a little bit of superiority complex in their blood, what each Indian has in his/her gene, is the ability to measure a queue. Be it be any queue, inspite of noticing it that how long it is, each and every Indian will make sure that he walks from the last person to the first person to see any adjustment can be done so that he doesn have to stand in the queue.
Next time when you stand in queue notice a change in your behaviour when you see along queue. The cells in your body will trigger a reaction in your body and you will be forced to measure the queue on.
I think we need a Bill to be raised in the Parliament regarding the violation of a queue. Who will volunteer???????????????????????????????
