Twin Pines Mall

I’ve been saying this for years, the bank/airport model for lines is so much nicer.  Even if on-average it doesn’t improve wait time, it does help with the “injustice” factor.

Though, this is probably impractical for 90% of grocery stores because there’s no space for it.

Not just grocery stores would benefit from this.  The Chick-fil-A in Silver Spring could do it, but they prefer the clusterfuck method of having everyone stand in a big open space until someone is lucky enough to hear the cashier say that they’re ready.

Not to slag off on Chick-fil-A, particularly the Silver Spring one.  They always have promotions and free stuff and once you do get to the register they’re almost always super nice and will give you free food or a coupon if there’s ever a problem.
