Wow. I am the most impatient person in line. (Yes, I am in the wrong business. Those dang lottery people buying one ticket at a time.) I would have been fuming. I'm sure I would have left halfway through that. I've noticed several times lately people getiing their card declined, and then declaring they forgot it was locked, and then they spend several minutes unlocking their card. Not stepping out of the way, but expecting everyone to wait on them.
The slightly off people I can deal with, but you are right there is always a chance something will go wrong. When doing reveals, especially where I have to take a torso photo,these ones sometimes try to involve themselves and ask why I am doing it. I just ignore them and talk straight to the employee. If they persist, I just ask them if they work there, and then dismiss them. Don't get me wrong, when people approach me while I am taking pictures I am happy to engage. It is just those who somehow think they need to get involved in the employee exchange.
