Lines of the Times
Why Chicagoans go out of their way to play the waiting game
by Tracy Swartz
There are some examples of waiting lines in Chicago. One of the most largest lines in Chicago was the Apple Store when the Iphone 4 came to Chicago. For some Chicagoans can wait for a new gadget at the Apple store, a glimpse at Oprah, lunch form the Gaztro-Wagon food truck parked, etc. Chicagoans probably will see more lines around town soon. People hate to wait in line for groceries and gasoline but can wait for free food or discounted tickets.
My opinion is more easy than the article said. It's so difficult to understand that the people can't wait to buy food for first but can wait to buy an expensive thing like electronics supplies, computers or newest things. Everybody hate lines but still have it in our lives. Every service has lines waiting, every market has lines waiting, every department store has lines waiting. Why can't wait for everything?
