I used to like asking for ID on things when I worked in retail, if it was clear they where over the limit, I would ask just for funseamusTX wrote:I could buy beer when I was 17. I occasionally got carded, but usually not.
I remember one time I said in passing that my 35th birthday had been a few days earlier, and I had become eligible to run for president. The man I was talking to, who had known me for a while, was incredulous that I was not at least 40.
I think the clerks who ask for ID when the customer is obviously well over 21 are just acting like robots because that is what they were trained to do.
(Employers really don't want employees who can think independently, because those employees might decide they need to be paid more or be treated better).
