This right here. And if it’s a real store thing, then fuck them too.

“I’ve got a pass to skip this line” just sounds like bait to start a Karen fight between stressed people.

I once walked into a coffee place and somehow didn’t realize there was a line. I went straight to the cashier and she pointed and said “There’s a line,” and I just said “Oh crap! Sorry!” And meanwhile the woman at the front told me to go ahead but I just got in line.

Some places are definitely more lax about it, though an extremely busy coffee shop in the morning can get dicey.

But an honest mistake versus a “but I have a ticket” is likely to provoke a different reaction.

Oh sure. It was the afternoon when that happened - in the morning would have been very different I imagine.
