Looking for suggestions on how to handle this, or strategies that have worked for you in regards to people cutting in line. I am often overwhelmed when I see a large group try to cut in front of us while their one or two people have stood in line. Not quite sure what to say or how to handle it.
I don't get upset, I just think it is slightly obnoxious to walk up to someone at the zoo who stopped in the middle when you can just as easily walk around them. Both the person stopped and the person who felt it was their duty to correct are equal in my book. It is no skin off my nose though if someone wants to take time to stop and do so. There are just some things that don't warrant a reaction and that falls into that category for me.
I think the answer lies in the fact that what you now call the "outlier" really isn't. Look at the number of posts here that have said "I have never really seen that" in response to a discussion of huge groups or entire families brazenly cutting ahead of the line.I've been going steadily since 1972 and have not experienced that. The single person or pair of people excusing themselves and asking if they can slide by to join their family is not the outlier. That scenario is by far the majority situation. That is why people are getting "caught up on these examples." People love to drone on and on about the group of 10 teenagers with matching T-shirts who snap their gum and giggle while cutting the line. But in reality, that rarely happens, and that is really the outlier.
Question: if people stop to play games in the line and really settle in, are you allowed to go around them or is that also considered cutting?
Disney is the ONLY place in the world that uses ONE and only ONE check out person with 2 lines. It infuriates me. Back and forth!! HATE IT!!!In my experience the cast members at the cash usually just keep their heads down and try to stay out of it. I'm not sure how much authority these particular cast members have over guests - they always seem a bit more unsure of themselves, compared to the ones you see directing people at parades or running the rides.
It also seems that many folks associate confrontation with anger and even going so far as to suggest it can ruin one's vacation if you allow it.
I personally would never consider this line cutting. To me line cutting is a huge group coming in without someone already in line.
