iPhone line-cutter

Lance Arthur deals with an iPhone line-cutter.

"Are you standing in line?"

"Yeah."

"Were you standing in line behind me outside for three and a half hours."

"Yeah, I was." Grin.

He stares at me. I instantly hate him. A lot. I hate everything about his self-congratulatory smart-assed grin and his cheating little heart and his idea of how life should work for him, where he can outsmart us all and get what he wants and get away with it. "No, you weren't."

Fairness matters, even when you've got something to lose.
