I want service now. Stop it!

After being out of the bike shop as a full timer for about a decade, and only working on Saturdays, I jumped back in as a full time wrench a week ago. Forgot how absolutely narcissistic some riders really are. Experienced the "drop everything now and fix my bike while I wait" scenario three times in the 7 days we have been open since being allowed to reopen. Not sure if these folks have the capacity to understand there is a store full of people, and many more who brought their bikes in for service well before they graced the front door, and are patiently waiting for a call from us letting them know their bike is ready for pick up.

If you find yourself doing this, please stop it! You upset everyone around you as well as yourself when the wrench denies your immediate request and takes care of those who came before your arse arrived.
