I tried to call into the majority report two days ago, and I just get some serious stage fright, didn't help that a national news story broke. I was stressing waiting for que to call in, calling in and getting voicemail, then getting put on hold. Like it was weird that I was high strung to the point where it was hard to form words.

I might try again after things calm down I'm America

Oh neat; you work in stage production? I bet you have some stories...

The cashier can cue the next person in the queue to approach the register.

Or if you're familiar with Star Trek, pool and the art of judo:
“Q picked up his cue while waiting in the queue for his kyu promotion test.”
