this is just me but... I would have stood right there and stared at them. they need to realize that im not going away just because they ignore me. If it were more than a minute and they had acknowleged that i was there but continued to discuss a non work related matter, i would cut in and say "So how long do you plan to ignore me?" many of these kids do not realize they are at work, and the customer must be served as soon as is posible, not "when its convenient"
