Tell me if I'm being overly sensitive, but I hate it when customers line up outside the store before we open. A few minutes before we open, sure, still a little weird but whatever. But some days they line up 30 to 45 minutes or more before we open. I hate when customers are staring in at us or knocking on the door. Read the hours on the door people!

You should be happy to see that many people!
Most businesses would be happy with that.
Beware people know when you open.
They probably was not aware of your business hours. A lot changed with Covid.

You are being overly sensitive.

This is very strange in my opinion. Having, customers still lining up at stores. Many retailers, offer the same selections and incentives, both online and in-store. There's, a necessity for them to do this. Less and less people are willing to go and spend that amount of time in retail lines.
