I like people to find their medicines. There's not much about me that is proscriptive, or prohibitive, or proliminous for that matter!
I woulda laid the money on the counter and took the ibuprofen and said, "fuck your ID" and walked out.. what are they gonna do?
Ah 'those were the days' However, I do dread the time when the O.A.P. ID is required (UK Thing?) Long may that day be away
As annoying as it is, I can understand the girls side as I sell cigarettes at my job, and now because I work nights I can get away with only IDing people who actually look like kids, but there's been lots of situations during the day, where I would have to ask for ID, even if I knew them, or they were clearly old enough because my manager, or store specialists were standing near by. There's also secret shoppers from the tobacco board that come in, and you have no idea who they are, and I can live without a 500 dollar fine. Like I said annoying but not the end of the world! It's not worth us losing our jobs over, and it gets so old listening to people bitch and complain about it!
It isn't the staffs fault like, theres a massive amount of pressure handed down to make sure everyone is ID'd. They cant remember everyone that comes through the shop and remember who does and doesn't have ID. I work for a bookies, and I don'tenjoy IDing folks but it just has to be done as I don't want to risk my income.
technically you're reading about it, not listening. and reading things is so much easier to avoid than actually listening to someone. i have worked in a pub and have had to ID people. the difference is if someone comes in every day and i've already ID'd them i can use the power of memory which i summon from the intricate workings of my brain so i remember them and don't keep IDing them. most shops I have ever lived near (ie: local shops) stopped IDing me after they saw me every day and each sodding member of staff had thier go at looking at my drivers license but this shop just doesn't seem to have anyone with a memory that works for over 3 seconds. next time.
Opel: You may have to remember them since they can't remember you. Ask after their parents, or wear a peculiar hat and seek their opinion on it.
Well I know that, I only mean you might try remembering them to themselves, before resorting to dismembering them. Maybe, all I'm saying is that if their stupidity has insulted you, then you've bought a little of it from them along with your ibuprofferhoffer! ( And we both know, as ninjas, that's unthinkable! ;D )
but dismemberment is so much fun. don't you watch dexter? and the last bit i have failed to comprehend, probably my stupidiity.
: D I'm just kidding. I've never seen it, or read the books. I've heard of it though, and just now looked it up. Not my idea of a ninja. Here is where you can learn the true art of ninjitsu.
