This is a question Inflated Self-Importance

Amorous Badger asks: Tell us tales of people who have a high opinion of themselves. Jumped-up officials, the mad old bloke who runs the Neighbourhood Watch like it's a military operation, Colonel Blimps, pompous bastards and people stuck up their own arse.

That reminds me of a visit to my local surgery.

Me - Hello if possible i'd like to make an appointment for today please.
Evil Witch - You'll have to phone in after 8:30 to book an appointment.
Me - but it's about 8:28 now, can't we just sort this out now?
Evil Witch - No you'll have to phone in at 8:30, we don't do this in person at the desk.
Me (at exactly 8:30, calling on my mobile phone whilst still stood at the reception desk & staring her straight in the eye) - Hello if possible i'd like to make an appointment for today please

I did that in Domino's pizza once
Well... not tried to make a doctor's appointment, obviously. There was a massive queue due to them being unexpectedly busy, and no-one could talk to the guy on the counter because he kept answering the phone instead. So I phoned him.

I expect everyone else in the queue was doing the same.
