Age Restrictions


Recommended Posts

Heard two utterly ridiculous cases of jobsworths taking age restrictions that little bit too far today...

 

My sister went into Sainsburys this morning and one of the things she went to buy were spoons, the person on the checkout asked her for ID :huh:. My sister (who is 29!) didn't have her ID on her (BECAUSE SHE'S 29!!!) so they wouldn't let her buy the spoons.....WTF!!! No knives involves, just a couple of spoons! Apparently you have to be 25......absolutely staggering!

 

And while I was telling a collegue about this today she told me about something that happened to her neice which is probably even more staggering. Her neice is also 29, she drove to Morrissons service station last week to get some petrol, same service station she goes to whenever she needs petrol. Pulls up, takes nozzle off pump....nothing, pump won't activate. She walks into the station to ask them what's up with it and the person behind the checkout says she won't let her take fuel until she shows her ID as she doesn't look old enough.....again, she is 29 years old!!!! You can ride a motorbike at 16, surely that means the age limit for petrol should be 16??? you can't tell me that a normal person can't tell the difference between a 16 year old and a 29 year old???

 

Me and my mate were having a few beers in our local bar years ago and an old piece came in, the lad behind the bar (Toot) asked her for ID....she was gobsmacked by had her driving licence on her so showed it to him.....she was 48!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: As Toot was looking at it the bar manager came over and asked what was going on, when Toot said he was checking her ID the bar manager smacked Toot around the head in front of this woman :laugh: and when he'd gone in a fit of rage Toot booted the fridge door shut and smashed the glass which then hit the asian bar tender (Pascal) on the back of his legs. Pascal then headbutted Toot in full view of everyone and was sacked on the spot. Toot then had to explain to everyone who came in the bar for the next week or two why he had two black eyes. A truly brilliant night!!! you couldn't make that shit up!!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

So the person in the petrol station thought she was under 16.........and shes 29.. :blink: ........dont know if id take that as a compliment or smack them round the chops !

yep, I know on very rare occassions you do get 20-odd year olds that do look very young but she doesn't, not at all....when I met her I thought she was older than me (34)! I absolutely deteste jobsworths. I had one at the airport, you know this limit on liquids, can't remember the exact amounts but it's something like maximum 50mls of liquid in hand luggage. Well I had a 250ml bottle of contact lense solution but it has a tiny amount in the bottom, literally enough for 1 contact lense chance (20ml maybe)....and the stupid c''t of a security person took it off me saying it was 250mls, I argued saying clearly there's nowhere near 250mls but he wouldn't have it and chucked it in the bin and I had to buy some more from boots when I'd gone though.....tosser! give a retard a bit of power and it goes to their head! proper arrogant aswell, he knew if I'd have kicked off he'd have had me taken out of the airport as a security threat or something stupid like that.
