Bad Manners at ATM

Ok I am just wondering if it is me or do others feel this way. While waiting to use the ATM how far back do you stand? I like to be considerate and give the person using the ATM some space. I mean you stand close enough to mark your spot in line but really you don't need to stand over someone's shoulder. I just had a run in with some a**hole at the ATM...ok run in may be a strong word and I am usually pretty passive but sometimes... :evil:

I remember one time, a few years back, I was in line at an ATM (we were just getting ready to go to the bar) on campus, and my buddy dropped me off to get some cash. There was a girl right in front of me, and I stepped behind her like I would in any line, not really over her shoulder, but still right behind her. And she was getting her card, then turned around and asked me if I would back up a few steps. I did, but at first I was kind of put out, like thinking to myself "what the hell, does she think I'm trying to rob her or something?" Then I got thinking about it and realized that 1. we were on a pretty much deserted college campus at night, 2. She was a girl by herself and I was a lot bigger than her. In other words, she was just being cautious, and rightfully so. I was just so caught up in what I was doing, I didn't even think that it might bother someone else.
I walked to the ATM oblivious that anyone would ever care if someone was close behind them, but after that, now I try to give people some space.
Yeah in your situ with you being a legit person that would be your first thought like "you think I am a bad guy?" like kind of wtf
See, I'm pissed off for you.
:evil:

THANK YOU!! I know I was so pissed that it wasn't until I walked away that I was like 'd'oh why didn't I go and stand beside him?'!!!
Asshat.
Give the guy some space, and keep your eyes elsewhere!
Nice analogy. I like it.
That's great!
on one of my favorite crime shows, an idiot installed a hidden camera and was getting everyone's account info

Yeah I turned around and said "I am actually going to be a few more seconds here if you could move back a little bit please" so I felt that I was polite and he really should have moved. Now I will be all paranoid about him stealing my pin :? :oops:
Yeah i heard of people doing that. Kind of scary.
Yeah, but even then you still don't want to go counting another guys money!

oh wow, he was just being a dick then. I like phantom's idea about blowing a fart. That would get them to move back
