Well, I don't know whether to be insulted or pleased. I bought some beer and got asked for ID. That has not happened for a few years. I know I look young for my age but after all!
You got ID'd, and I was working with a guy this week who was talking about a customer he ran into that I might know. His description of the fella was 'old like you, except with hearing aids'......sheesh. When exactly did I become the oldest guy on the crew. I don't remember volunteering for that.
I am a retired telecommunications technician, Union Activist/Organizer and Political Junkie (Lefty), adult educator - Union Leadership, Parliamentary Procedure, Public Speaking. I live six months a year in Canada (to keep my Canadian Medical coverage) and six months somewhere else - currently Mexico. THE MOTORHOME: A 2005 31' Tioga Class "C" we bought in Texas in March 08 with only 4000 miles on it! It is the perfect size for Mexico.

ReplyDeleteThat is a tough way to find out you are old, Rod!
ReplyDeleteMy new career is teaching me that you old cranks tend to really sweeten up when ID'd, taking it as a form of flattery. ;)
ReplyDeleteSomeone suggested that the store must have been busted for serving minors so the new policy is to ID everyone. Even 64 year olds buying a cold beer!
ReplyDeletethats so cute, take is a compliment, i still wish they would ask me for id at the liquor store, maybe have to head to that one for that compliment!
