Common courtesy
Here I am waiting in line outside UH213 for OSAP around 7:30 AM with one other person. Some 20 minutes later, a guy and a girl walk in together and proceed to sit themselves ahead of of myself and the aforementioned other person.

WTF people? Is it so hard to get your heads out of your asses and show some respect for your peers? Things like this happen on campus throughout the year. Let's be more courteous to each other, shall we?

Let's be clear, I don't care that I am now "third" in line, I know I'll get in and out so that's not a problem. What bothers me is that they showed complete disrespect to those of us that were already here.

" You are able to pick up your funding documents 10 business days prior to your study period start date". So does that mean I can only pick up osap on sep 1?

10 Business days means August 27th, I believe.

Business days doesn't include weekends, so it's sometime before September 1st.

And yeah, I really hate line cutters, at any place. OSAP lines are the worst of the worst.

Did you try punching them in the face? Sometimes that works.

Sometimes it's better to start off with a joke if you're going to do this, to throw them off guard.

"What did the five fingers say to the face?"

I hate that too. I just got back from OSAP and I heard people complaining about other students holding spots in line for like 10 of their friends.

I'm also angry because I got there at about 8:15 to get a good spot in line and an hour or so later (don't remember) it's my turn and guess what! My OSAP isn't there yet! "Come back on Friday" they said. Arrrggg. I went all the way there for nothing in the pouring rain. I get to do it again on Friday. @[email protected]

I hate it when theres a long line for the GO, usually in the mornings going to Mac, and just as the bus is pulling up people will arrive and get in behind the person getting on the bus. It doesn't bother me if there isn't a long line but if there is...get in the damn line!
