“You are how you wait: Queue psychology“

Summary

Almost every day people go to shops to get food, clothes or other important things. It is fun to walk around and to discover new, useful things. But people confront with a little problem – a queue.

Waiting is an inescapable part of life, but that does not mean customers enjoy it. When shoppers are in line, they are bored doing nothing. People imagine that they are waiting 30 percent longer than the real waiting time.

So, some bussinesses increased a lot of pleasure of waiting and created a diversion from queue. It was a good idea for supermarkets to let customers listen to the music or to let see the promotional video on monitors near checkouts.

                     

All in all, every problem has a solution and it depends on the way how people look at it. Customers should be patient in line and remember that nothing is as bad as sometimes they imagine.

My Future Profession

One of the hardest task for a young person is to decide what you wanna be in the future. But for me it is quite easy, because now I'm studying Psychology in the University of Mykolas Romeris and I love it (I hope  I won‘t change my mind after first course).

In my opinion, this profession is with a light future, because Psychology is one of the most popular profession in the whole world. Why I chose exactly this profession? Well, I have two reasons...

Firstly, I want to help people. Nowadays, almost every person has many problems with his soul. Our world is so full of stress, that people are unhappy, angry. So, I think I could help them to change their feelings and minds.

Secondly, I want to learn how to hypnotize people and command them anything what I want. Haha.. No, it‘s a joke. Maybe..

So finally, I strongly believe that Psychology will be my future profession.
