So you don't know she knows you or your age, your dad you now say knows her family.
that how i know how long she has lived here nothing to do with how i know she knows im over 18.

You now seem to think this means shes an expert on you. I feel that word coming on again............assumption!
no you are the one assuming everything

She'll end up being your long lost sister in a minute I expect.

i went in with my partner to do our weekly shop and we decided to get a bottle of drink but we got to the tills and they asked me for i.d which i dont have (they know im over 18 and have served me b4) , my partner was paying 4 the shopping so i told them he was the one buyin it so he showed them his i.d and they refused to serve him just because i never had i.d, this is so stupid as what would they do if someone took there kids shopping surly they cant ask the kids for i.d apparenlty its a new policy to ask anyone who is at the till at the time of purchasing alcohol to provide i.d :mad: :mad:

think i will shop at asda from now on!

this is my op have highlighted so you can see clearly what i was venting about

Out of interest Zoelouise88, have you now learnt that Tescos are perfectly allowed to ask you for ID and have you now learnt to actually carry ID?

well obviously from now on i will carry id but do you now see was i was actually venting about?
i do think it is a stupid policy as they have to id all people present at the time off purchase which is a bit much if you ask me as others have said what if we are with our children

and as others on the thread have told you, a million times, the staff are allowed to use their discretion and common sense, asking a 5 year old, in a sho[ with their mother, for ID may be unreasonable but asking a person you think is 17 who is with, say a 21 year old friend to also produce ID if you suspect the 21 year old is buying for the suspected 17 year old is perfectly reasonable, and as I've said, if they're in any doubt they should ask for ID and refuse the sale if it's not forthcoming. I udnerstand what you were venting about but many people have now explained why a checkout operator would do what she did.

I'm more of a cheddar girl myself, although I'll try anything once!

I used to know most of my regulars when I worked on the checkouts because they were REGULAR lol. I know you dont need brains to be a checkour operator but surely if you see someone 2 or 3 times a week you cant be dumb enough to forget them
