That's very typical of the young - they seem to be spineless. But I find myself doing it when I stand in a queue that has stopped moving.

TAPS, I catch myself leaning if the wait is long...
and that's when I give myself a good talking-to.  All-in-all, the lean is better than griping aloud...

business.

I find the young lean against anything that happens to be around them. I'm not so sure the teachers and parents are reminding them about posture anymore.

We all have our pet hates, LOL. With me it's people who show up at the 1-10 check-out (the one I typically use) with their carts loaded to the gunn'ls - and if they happen to be in front of me, they are never there for long...

LOL! I normally drag the cart behind me
But I have to admit, I have my days when the cart is truly holding me up, usually because my back has decided it's going to give me fits that day and make it painful to stand.

If the line at the checkout counter is long and I have to wait and wait, sometimes I do that.  Please don't knock me down.  Otherwise, I have very good posture.
