Do you let people with only one item go ahead of you?
Yes, as long as I don't also have one or two items.

Do you wait for the shelves if someone's there, or say Excuse me" and get in??
I'll wait for a little while, but after awhile, I'll usually excuse myself and grab the item.

Do you pick up things if you drop them?
Yes... and it happens a lot. - Once I had to pick up plastic plates, and the size I needed was on the top shelf. Well, I'm 5'0", so I had to jump up at the shelf repeatedly to try to grab a package. Unfortunately, about 15 packages all fell around me, and I got dorked in the head by one. Took awhile to clean that one up.

Do you find yourself "organizing" the shelf even if you didn't mess it up?
Occasionally, but I try to resist the urge.

Do you ever change your mind about an item and stick it where it doesn't belong?
No... I feel bad doing it.

Nope

Usually only the ones who are whining.
