Mikvah surge pricing is wrong, unethical, immoral and probably illegal.

I understand that the askonim and machers need to make yom tov, but this is just killin me.
Why is Uber (or any other surge pricing business)different?

So true, a whole room full of intelligent (presumably) adults and they can't figure out how to walk in a circle.

Also, please when davening ends, don't be that guy that him and a friend decide to shmmoze right in front of the door or shelf for the siddurim, as everyone has to try to navigate and get out.

Guys like me. I'm done trying to rush around the bima and getting all bent out of shape about the guy that you perceive as spacing out... Now I take my merry time and only move when there are daled Amos open...
Basically, we're all in this together, and are at the mercy of the chazan anyway. We're not going home until HE has had his fix....

But the short-cut guys... are the pits! Don't get me started.

I was short cut guy until I realized that the merge back in was taking longer than the walk around.
I'm not who you think I am.

The slow chazon at the fast minyan (I'm 2/2 on that for shachris so far).

The bathroom doors that lock with just pushing in a button (I always feel like it isn't actually locked, and I can't check if it is!)
I'm not who you think I am.
