Not a racist just doing my job

[morgana]

I think I'd probably say something like, "Yes, you humans are very easy to dislike."

But I'm not sure I'd want to clean up the mess when their heads explode.

Regarding the Merchant's Agreement with the rule about not requiring to see I.D.: I've seen that, even looked it up just to verify it a few years back. However, I must confess, I've never heard of the credit card companies actually enforcing that law, so take that as you will...

I think anyone who runs a register is going to have the race card pulled on them at some time. I remember at my last job, I got this because I requested an I.D. from a young man who gave me a card with a distinctly female name on it. While it could have been a "Boy named Sue" situation, the fact that he started insisting it was because of his race that sort of clinched this wasn't the case.

I'd go with, "Nope, I'm a bigot."

A sexist egotistical lying hypocritical bigot...

There is a reference here so it's not completely random.

Want to end a conversation like this quick?

Just say "well, you may be right." in a bored voice.

I may be crazy.
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for.

Some customers don't even have to be where you can see them to accuse you of racism. I had a phone customer accuse me of being racist when I told him he had to prepay his ad. I told him I didn't know and didn't care what race he was but we required prepayment. He went on and on and finally hung up without paying for the ad. I remembered his name and several years later he placed a "moving sale" ad. Yay! One less asshole in our town!

You know, I've gotten flack for asking for ID when they've clearly written on the card "See ID".

Those are the same people that yell at you for honking at them when they have a "Honk if you love Jesus" bumper sticker on their car.

[sweetj82]

I always wondered how these people who throw fits about Id's would act if their card was stolen and we didnt ask for id from the theif??

You know, I've gotten flack for asking for ID when they've clearly written on the card "See ID".

I read a story by a cashier who had a woman that had SEE ID on her card...

Cashier: May I see your ID please?
Woman: Why?
Cashier: You have SEE ID written on your card.
Woman: Oh! That's not for me. That's only for if my card gets stolen and someone else tries to use it!

*In a flat monotone* No ma'am, I'm not racist. I'm just anti-social.
