Does it annoy anyone else when getting off the plane that theres already a line of people ready to leave and then people jump up from their seat to jump in and grab their bag. I realize that people want to get up and go, but emptying the line first makes it quicker. Also, its incredibly rare [in my experience] that anyone that jumps up would just have their carry on already retrieved or just had the one from under their seat.
And sometimes the person from 5 rows back "jumps up" right away and blocks you from even standing up. It takes 3-4 seconds to grab your bag out of the over head, sometimes maybe 10.

What really annoys me, are those who push you out of the way saying that they have a plane to catch at a major hub. Really? Like half the plane doesn't either.
