A Clueless Kid (CK) comes in and orders Marlboro Spearmint Snus. Of course, I work at a gas station, we get stings run by both our company and Phillip Morris. The Sting kids CANNOT, literally CANNOT lie to us. So if we ask "Are you 18 years of age or older?" they have to say "No."
We also have registers that can read the strip on the back of a license in our state (and several other states) to see if they're old enough or if it's expires.
Me: Are you 18 years of age or older?
CK: Yes.
Me: Can I swipe your ID?
CK: *opens his wallet but does not take it out*
Me: Can I swipe it?
CK: *hands it to me* What does that do?
Me: *swipes* It tells me you're underage. *looks at license* Did you know your birthday is in 1993?
CK: *stares at me, takes his license and leaves*
Really? Really? FER SERIOUS? You're underage and you HANDED ME YOUR LICENSE? You really have to not be thinking. Or maybe enough clerks gave it to him that he began to really believe he'd get away with it every time. I'd recognize him again if I saw him, there's no way he could pass for 25, the age we have to think of when we're carding.
