In a coffee shop one notices the pacist telling a barista who is preparing a caffeinated beverage to order, "Hurry up! I have a meeting!!!" The pacist acts as if their own timing and agendas are not only superior to that of the slower pace people but that the slower pace of others is inherently annoying or cause for oppression. Pacism is the underlying factor in impatience with others' slower pace.
