The Bakery Wars
I am sometimes too lazy to go to mosque for Fajr prayer. So the other morning, after praying, I came out on my balcony as the sun came up. Suddenly I heard shouts and sounds of scuffle coming from up the street.
I then saw a group of people at a local bakery arguing and fighting for a place in a queue. Someone seems to have pushed in in front, as seems to be the norm around here, and the resulting commotion was the outcome. So much can be said about the manners of queueing, which are so sadly absent around here.
