B on the service desk had a guy throw a full-on toddler tantrum and threaten to call the authorities because...
...we (as in Western Union and the law) require a social security number to send over $500. And buddy didn't want to give it because "nobody needs that!"
Well, he's partly right. It shouldn't be used as an identifier for non-tax purposes, but anything involving large sums of money...yeah. Especially if you don't seem to have the income to support sending $2K in one go. He didn't want to show ID either (also required).
We kinda wished he did follow through with his threat to call the cops, instead he just stormed out after trying (and failing miserably) to overturn the electric cart. All he actually managed to do was knock the door off the track, an easy fix. At least he didn't break the glass again.
