Well not in China. There is no such concept of a line, which few exceptions, here. A bus shows up and people will rush and push on to it like the world will end if they don’t get on the bus now. Going through security at the train station putting items on the conveyor belt to be x-rayed, they will put their stuff on top or in front of yours even if you got there first. And they will be just as eager to grab their stuff before you as if you are going to steal it. Getting on the train is also a huge massive group of pushing and shoving people, even though we have assigned seats. My favorite was getting on the airplane after a shuttle bus dropped us off at the plane. There was only one ramp up to the plane so the attendant could check your tickets again, and everyone was running and pushing for their lives to get up into the plane. Once again, we had assigned seats.
One exception seems to be long lines. For some reason, people line up for that. I don’t really see any logic to why and when they will queue up. I will let you know when I figure it out. Ooh China.
