As much as I would love to do this, I don't think I could ever bring myself to. If the line is more than about 4 people long I just turn around and walk out, unless I really need whatever the line is for. I'll wait at the post office, but I ain't waiting for the soccer mom to recharge her Starbucks account using a bonded credit card from Mozambique or whatever. That's a simpler way to avoid wasting time that doesn't involve giving me special treatment.
But anyway, I think it is unhealthy, for lack of a better word, to think in these terms. You'll start stressing yourself out about how much money you're wasting (because time=money) in scenarios where wasting the time is unavoidable (traffic, spending time with in-laws, etc.)
- lionhearted 15y agoActually, I cut traffic, people who don't treat me well, and all that stuff too. But it's not money, it's about time being the very most important thing. I want to spend it all doing really amazing things with good people, and none of it on wasteful terrible uses of time that most people are under the mistaken impression are unavoidable. It's not your duty to suffer stupidly for no reason. Really. Just because someone else suffers stupidly for no purpose doesn't mean you have to.
