Getting ID' in the supermarket where I've never been ID' & not having any ID on me and then having a ridiculous conversation where I ask the ID'er & her manager do I look 17 or younger "No" so I must be 18 or over.

"We have a challenge 25 policy"

"Yes but I am 27 so you got that wrong as well!"

On the one hand, I was kind of flattered to be asked if I was over 25 when buying a cutlery set in Asda, on the other hand I was kind of baffled why you have to be over 25 to buy one - how do 23yos eat?!?

I resisted pointing out if I wanted to damage somebody, the fork would do more damage than the dinner knives they supplied!

Ridiculous rule!

Sounds similar to me & oh the supermarket was ASDA!!

The same girl has been serving me for 3 years, I said you served me alcohol last week without ID she replied not making much sense "if I asked you for ID before I don't remember you!"

"That's my point you've never asked me for ID before!"

One of my mates got Challenged at Tesco buying a few packets of paracetamol and washing powder when the cashier said he couldn't buy so many packs of Paracetmol , he said "why"

She said "you could overdose"

He replied" yeah I was planning on doing all my washing first before overdosing!"

I had the same with Calpol 3+ months I would have a better chance of using it to drown myself than overdose.

Might have said this already but people on tills with dirty nails or that don't look clean it's my food you are touching.

also over inquisitive people on tills who ask me questions about what I am buying, once had the till woman pick up my shea butter scented bog roll and have a smell and then give it to the previous customer to smell as well.

I once got asked in a bar after ordering a glass of Tequila and I glass of lemonde; "You are going to mix these and slam them aren't you". "Er, yes". "Ok, fair enough" - honesty pays

Same with Snakebite and black, some places are right dicks about it. "we cant serve that".

"Ok, give me a pint of lager and a half a cider and black"

"OK"

Used to love that in the old diesel drinking days.

"Oh, can I have one in a pint glass"

"Are you going to mix them"

"No, I just like some room in case I spill it"

Can actually take your drinks off your for something like that. While there isn't a problem with snakebite, one of my colleagues got bollocked the other week by the manager, as he decided to serve a shot of baileys, and half a pint of cider, as well as giving them a glass so they could mix them...

Well of course, it ended up badly, obviously it curdles, but that's apparently the idea, 3 grown men ended up spewing all over the bathroom and who was left to clear it up... me....

So another thing to add to the list of annoying things... stupid colleagues.

I had three times cooked chips once. They should have called them thrice cooked by my reckoning, but they called them three times cooked.

Can't remember process, but they were nice.

I find people that make lists that are too long so annoying.
Every list should be 10 items or less because that's how many fingers we have.
However, I do agree especially about seeded grapes.
