after a wait of 30mins It was almost 12.45 and at 1.00 the counter closes down, so I really felt to tell these ladies that they dont need to stand in the Queue!!! Simply because they are women.
I reached the counter just 10mins before it closes but my conscious told me to inform these ladies not to stand in queue but rather go straight to the counter... which they all did but all infront of me. nevermind
Please Inform your mises, your sister and most importantly yourself That as a Female YOU DONOT NEED TO STAND ON A QUEUE!
This apply's in all Gov./public sectors.

I pay the bills as I have the time and will wait my turn in the queue, as my son is at playschool I have time to queue... It doesnt bother me at all!

Women can be pregnent, she can have a baby at home, she may have to prepare the food for her children and husband before they come at home.
And several other duties! Beside A man in front of you and another man behind you, that is not something WE OR I would want our sisters or Mother to go through.
Just remember not you complain if you see a women going straight to the queue front.

Many women have maids to care for the children and get the meal ready... And you wont hear me complain of waiting my turn in any queue.
