I wasn't paying attention at Subway, jumped the gun and started ordering the fixin's I wanted added to my sandwich.  I hadn't noticed that the sandwich belonged to the woman in front of me in line.  I'd like to think I would be more apt to pay attention if I was debating pulling the plug or not, but I'm not sure.  I might just walk in and start pointing to outlets to yank first without even verifying that the sandwich is mine.
