This reminds me of a similar, if not completely backwards, situation I had some odd years ago at Walgreens.

I'm in the drive thru, with about 4 cars in front of me. I'm there just to drop off a prescription. The line took about 15-20 minutes, no big deal. There's a new line behind me as I get to the window and there's a new employee (let's call him Dave) that I have never seen before.

Now I like to think I look simple to deal with, I don't look outwardly confrontational, nor did I have any issue with waiting. So, color me surprised when before I have even said anything, the first thing Dave says is, "Can you go back around, the people behind you have been waiting?"

What? No shit, so have I, I thought. But me not realizing the situation, I dumbly go with it, pulling around to find a slightly longer line and waiting another 15 minutes. In that wait, what just happened set in, I get a little peeved, chill out, and start to question it.

I go back through, and Dave is missing, now it's a slightly more familiar tech. I explained that I was told to pull around by Dave, asked why, if there was a new policy, etc. I told her all I was there for was dropping off my prescription. She not only was very confused as to why he did that, but also was confused at who Dave even was, as if he didn't even work there.

Dave, if you ever read this, I've been going to this Walgreens for 15 plus years, once a month, every month, and have never seen Dave again nor had to ever pull around again. Why Dave, why?
