[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once standing in the food line with my mom, a woman behind us kept being uncomfortably close to us. Extreme. Basically touching us. Repeatedly, we moved forward to give ourselves space. And she moved forward again, breathing on our neck. There was no line behind her/not a crowded area. [/quote] I had someone do that to me at Walmart once. I told her to back off and it surprised her, but she stepped back. [/quote] This happens to me all the time at the usual grocery stores - Giant, Safeway, and yes, Costco. Some people have no concept of "personal space."[/quote]In some other countries this is the norm, the personal space is just a foot or so. It's cultural and does not feel odd to them. When I was in rural Wyoming I noticed that people lined up with 5-6 feet of space. Or even hung back until they could walk up alone and not be near anyone. I felt uncomfortable and wanted them to move on up. I felt like someone might get in front of them if they didn't step up. [/quote]
