73 year old man refuses to say "I am over 21." Supermarket refuses to serve him alcohol. Both end up looking pretty fucking stupid.

Argh. That's awesome; how can everyone involved have such a bad sense of humour failure? Mind, there's a woman at the Morrison's near my parent's house who always, always IDs me for alcohol in a really sour way, and then gives me the most droning lecture about it (despite me protesting I KNOW I WORK IN A PUB) and sometimes threatens to call security. It's weird, it's like she has a personal grudge against me.

Um, yes, those Morrison's people were just being really petty. I hate Morrison's anyway..

What the hell does she give you a droning lecture _on_? The evils of alcohol and how it will lead you straight to hell?

Fantastic picture by the way.

"It's me job Ah have t'ask everyin fer ID if they leuk unner 21 and ye leuk unner 21 and it's the law see an if Ah serve ye an ye're unner 18 then ah lose me job it's not me it's the law" all while pulling a horrible face.

Aaaah, so she feels bad about it. But then threatens to call security anyway?

I'm so glad I've never had to work in a supermarket. I'd go mad.

She goes *on* and *on* and all the time I'm trying to interrupt with "yes, I know, I work in a pub, I understand" and eventually she seems to notice my hopeless bleating and changes to "Ah could call security if ye've got a problem, ye knaa, Ah could"

Aaargh.. Anyway, there's a M&S food hall in Morpeth now so I just go there instead.
