    SC and their relatives

    I was working a XYZ Smoke shop a few months back, and NY they had a strict policy on tobacco sells.

    SC: (looks about 15 yrs old) Grabs a can of snuff
    Me: Hello, May I see your ID?
    SC: Starts cursing up a storm and saying he doesn't have his ID.
    Me; I am sorry no id, no sale.
    SC: Bangs his fists on the counter screams and slams out the door

    *About and hour later*

    OlderSC:"Can you help me I need certain kind of snuff my nephew was in here and the dumb f*cking clerk wouldn't sell to him because he didn't have ID."
    ME: "I am sorry sir, If a sale was refused and you admit you are buying him the snuff I can not sell it to you"
    OSC: "What? He is old enough he just doesn't have ID Come on sell them to me. Why can't you sell them just this once? No one will know."
    ME: "I am sorry sir I can't it is the law"
    OSC:"Hey I won't narc on you; your manager will sell them to me if he was here."
    ME: "I am sorry sir, I can't; besides my manager is a female.
    OSC: "Oh please? Can't you please sell them to me?"
    ME: "I am sorry sir I can't. I am just a dumb fucking clerk."
    OSC: "Oh I didn't know it was you."

    He left the store never to be seen again.

    You think the nephew would be a little more discriptive (or uncle ask a better discription) of the clerk.

    Maybe they think clerks are like tissues. A new one pops up everytime you use one.
    Time! Time! Time is what turns kittens into cats.

    Don't teach me a lesson; all I learn is that you are an asshole.

    I wish porn had subtitles.

      If he hadn't told the little story of his nephew being refused he wouldn't have had a problem.

      Reminds me of when I refused some teenagers alcohol. A little later a lady came in and took the exact same items to a different till (unfortunately I didn't have time to stop the sale) and bought it. I could even see the teenagers outside.

      I don't miss that side of retail work.

        I love how she noted "The fucking dumb clerk wouldn't sell them to him".......what really makes her think she's going to get them NOW?

        Oh I got used to being called names for refusing smokes/beer to people without ID. I was called some pretty colorful names.

          Yeah, that's the part I don't get. I mean, I'd think that, by now, everybody should know that if they're telling they're buying stuff for some one to whom it had been denied, they'll be denied the sale too...

          Why don't they just STFU ? Or keep it to the bare minimum interaction ?
          Cust. : "Hello, I need X."
          Clerk : "Here you are. It's $X.XX."
          Cust. : "There."
          Clerk : "Here's your change. Anything else."
          Cust. : "Thanks. Have a nice day."

          Fast, efficient, no fuss, and you get the product for your possbily underage friend / relative / whatever. But it's now your own responsibility.

            I love how the OP called out the SC in the end.
