    You would just say you know for a fact they are old enough to drink?

    I wouldn't lend a DVD to an underage child either. Nor would I use that experience to justify two people in their late 20s being discriminated against.

    When I was interviewing for uni I made a few mates and we decided to go out the night after we'd all had our interviews. We walked into the nearest pub, one bloke ordered and was instantly asked for ID. He confidently presented what I assumed was a fake ID, turned out he'd given then his real ID which said he was 17. I don't think he got in.

    I’m never asked for Id these days normally only refused service because they don’t like me

    How do u know his name wasn't Lord Love Rocket tho? :D
    A while ago at work we re issued HR docs to everyone asking them what pronoun and name they wished to be known as, one lad who's mission in life is to push everyone's buttons and often as he can, hilariously :rolleyes: decided he wished to be known as Attack Helicopter and as is his right that is now his name on all company documentation........bonkers imo, but there u go. I guess it's only a small step to go one further and do it by deed poll to get it on your driving licence. Kids eh? What a wag.

    @Gravy Chips if it makes you feel any better mate I’ll retell my Tesco at stairfoot story from a few months ago when I was buying alcohol

    I was at the self checkout
    Her…can you remove your mask love?
    me… (rather smugly) it’s ok I’m old enough
    Her…oh I know you are love but you look like an alcoholic druggie that’s banned from here. :eek:

    I recently saw a list from a survey our workplace did of answers that were given under Gender and other.
    It was completely anonymous so as you can imagine it wasn't taken seriously. We had rabbits, penguins and 'land dolphins'

    I was in Asda a couple of months ago and bought myself a meal deal to take to work I went for a can of Monster for the drink option. At the self service till it said on the screen age verification needed so the women came over, looked in my bag, looked at the screen then looked at me and asked me for ID. I laughed as I thought she was joking, turns out she wasn’t, having no ID on me apart from my bank card and CSCS card I had to swap the Monster for a bottle of Pepsi.

    I’m 41

    And I bet you could guess who most were.

    We've had similar but our writing style gave many up

    It was nationwide thousands of employees. And that was just a sample I could remember, but yes I could guess many of the ones at our place.

    Another true air related tale. I was coaching at a Primary School in Donny. It was my first session at Intake. Settled in then took my first lesson. Doing the register for first time and went down the usually Rosie, Connor, Cameron etc. Then to double check before I had to ask if NIMROD was in class. Poor kid.
