I haven't observed it at my new building, but where I used to work, people habitually lit their cigarettes while in the revolving doors, so entering the door was stepping into a small, smoke-filled chamber.

Is this in London? Trouble is you can't do anything about it, since jumping queues was decriminalised a few years back, mostly on the grounds that jumping queues was unenforceable.
Now when it happens I just think: "OK, you obviously want to get to your crappy office/shop/bedsit so desperately, go ahead, and you'll end up like me in the stroke unit in 20 years."

On the NYC subway there's the thing where most people kind of form queue-ish groups on either side of the door to wait for the passengers to get off, but then there's always the one person who tries to get a little edge by just barreling through the middle while everyone is waiting on the side. I mean, it's hard not to be a bit savage on a rush-hour subway, but come on.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone actually queue up at a London bus stop.
Thinking about it that would be logistically extremely difficult at a lot of them. The bus stop at Victoria where I take the bus to work serves about 7 different routes, which presumably would necessitate 7 different queues.

The bus stop sign is in the middle of the bus stop layby at my morning stop, which means that:- if the bus goes right to the end of the bus stop, the door is halfway down the queue, and it turns into a free-for-all- if the bus parks with its door alongside the front of the queue, there's no room for other buses to pull up behind it, which causes its own annoying problems
I spend way too long thinking about these problems, and having a mental list of repeat queue-jumpers, and then justifying it when I queue-jump because I tend to get a different bus to most people and it doesn't hang about if you don't fight your way through the other bus's queue fast enough

There is one bus stop that I use that that serves two directions of one route. Somehow, without any signage of any kind, people invariably line up the same way every time. Eastbound people line up at point X, westbound a just 2 or 3 feet away at point Y.
It's not even like Eastbound people line up on the east and Westbound on the west, b/c the stop is not oriented that way. Just the same side of the curb, no markers, no signs, nothing except strange unwritten rules that keep everyone orderly.
