Asda use Think 25 for alcohol, knives and whatnot.
I went in a month ago to buy some booze, and wasn't asked for ID. Gutted. :( |

MGS, dear boy, is Manchester Grammar School - one of the finest educational establishments in the country. I'd be surprised if the bint who "served" me could even add up to 18.
A few people have told me I should take it as a compliment. But it's not a compliment to be told by a thick bítch that I might be under 18. And no, I won't carry ID with me. If a shop insists on employing such **wíts, I will not contribute towards their wages. |

I got ID'ed at asda the other week by some kid at least 10 years my junior. Normally I wouldn't get overly wound up by it, but as I'd just had my bike pinched from outside my work the same day, I was in a really bad mood and stormed off, leaving my £100 worth of shopping sitting on the conveyor belt.

Played against M.G.S. in a 7's rugby tournament M&P in Macclesfield, they were a good side but not quite good enough that day.
I got asked for I.D. in America, I was 27 and hadn't shaved for a week and must have looked about 35. |

By:
I was completely sober, gents. Don't judge others by your own rock-bottom standards ;)
I should have given her an earful of abuse, but all I said was something like, "You're joking" and tipped a few items of food out of my bag and on to the conveyor belt. This prompted the thick cow to ring the bell. I would have thrown the piece of gammon at her, but fatso would have eaten it whole. |

Some places have a ' look over 25' system.

I got ID'd at a Casino in NZ this year...then the guy wouldn't even accept my official ID as ID then wanted to see a Credit Card when I showed him my passport...I glared at him as I left. That taught him.

"You're joking" and tipped a few items of food out of my bag and on to the conveyor belt. Wow you sounded really mad |

They'll have a programme to try to catch out cashiers serving under-agers, with sacking a possible repercussion. They don't want to risk losing their jobs just so one mass of molecules can buy items without the disruption of having to get their ID out. Everyone judges people to be of a different age, so just because we have fine judgement skills, doesn't meant everyone else does.
If you've got ID and get angry rather than simply produce it, then you're a bit of a cûnt. |

Don't you guys have a photo ID driving license...?

By:
No, we have licences here.

I expect someone in M&S has decided that to be sure that they don't serve under-age people staff should ask for ID for anyone who looks under 25.
The manager of the store has decided that to avoid him getting into trouble from head office if they don't ask for ID for people who look under 25, as he's not very confident of the ability of the staff to decide whether someon is under 25, they shoudl ask for ID for anyone who looks under 30. And the assitants have decided that in order to avoid the risk of being told off by their manager for not asking for ID for anyone who looks under 30, they will ask for it for anyone who looks under 35. |

:) @ mex.
I don't even look under 25! Even Stevie Wonder can see I'm old enough to buy ale. Fortunately, I hadn't got round to ordering my Christmas food from M&S - so I will now be taking my business to Waitrose. I don't carry my driving licence round with me. And as I said earlier, I refuse to contribute to the wages of a woman so stupid that she can't tell that I'm over 18. The irony is that she was probably in her early 20s, if not younger. |

By:
Maybe she knew you had only been to Preston Poly so wasn't impressed by MGS ;-)
