I’d invariably just buy more booze with the forty dollar windfall.
hehe.... I remember a story with fake ID or so....
On a serious note, if to card everyone is a part of cashier's job description, like it was explicitly said to him or he received it as a part of his contract, then he should do it.
That changes nothing in the fact that it is nonsense. I mean.... the requirement to card such an old hag like me is waste of my time and waste of cashier's time.
It changes also nothing in the fact that trying to make the cashier to pay for it is completely outrageous. I mean.... I design plant equipment that costs often > 500 k. No one never would expect me to pay if this equipment pieces fail.
It changes also nothing in the fact that getting fired without corresponding procedure with written warning and so on is ridiculous, even for a cashier.
It changes also nothing in the fact that this offer with 40 y.o. is plain harassment of the cashier. I mean.... if I see the logic with 21y.o. the offer with 40 y.o. doesn't make the owner in any way more money and if I would be the cashier it would make me feel that the only reason for such policy is to make my life harder.
