I don’t buy that, people don’t normally have to sit around for hours just waiting, there’s nothing to do apart from shop for overpriced brands

That's certainly a factor but it's not too hard to plan ahead and bring or buy a book. Or work on a laptop.

Waiting in lines, waiting in traffic, waiting for buses. There's still plenty of waiting. And when people have free time (weekends, etc.) Yes they often drink.
