Lots of lots of legs

No matter how I set my heart, the act of no answering really annoys me. Anyway, for the main story.

I was on leave on Wednesday and I went to the bank. The queue was a single line, which feeds 5 customer service officers. Despite the full turn out, the queue moved slowly. As people are wont to do, they would shuffle a step forward whenever they feel impatient. This act would cascade down the line and repeat again at another random point. When a new customer gets served, the queue would move again. We would probably look like a millipede with rippling segments, except that we aren't moving. I always thought that this constant adjustment in the ranks is a silly act. As before, I stayed put.

Customer got served. I moved.
Someone shuffled forward. I looked at the TV.
Another movement. I looked at the TV.

Next customer got served. I moved.
More shuffling. I looked at the TV.
Shuffle... I looked at the TV.
Uncle behind me moved alongside me to the right. I glanced with amusement and... looked at the TV

Third customer. I moved.
Forward march! I stayed.
Shuffle. Another uncle behind me in the queue but now in opposing view gestured angrily. "Move!", he seemed to say.

I couldn't help smirking.
