Indeed!

(And that has actually been a suggested serving strategy to prevent long queues!)

Fascinating. That would actually work nicely at job centres, for instance, where here in Germany you usually have to draw a number. The system displaying the number of the next customer served would just have to count down instead of up. Of course, long humiliating waits in ugly job centre corridors are an integral part of the system here, so they would never implement something like that...

It only work in theory (and this thread), in the real world what will happened, people will fight and number of people getting service will reduced.

"People kept waiting a long time may not be happy, but at least they would not see people who arrived in the queue after them getting served first."

Yeah right.
