How stupid do you have to be to see it wasn't an insult? She was being nice by saying you might not be as old as you look/innocent flirting. That's what (normal) people do for the elderly to make them forget there's a big chance they may die soon. Plus I'm sure it's policy to card everyone. My mother has been getting carded since I was young

Gake and Fay!!!!!

I agree #20.

That's dumb! Don't card him if he's clearly old. It's just mean.

I do not think this is a YDI if op asked jokingly to be friendly with customers. Its a shame people cannot take a joke.

You were harassing the old codger. If somebody looks old enough to have gone to school with Moses, it is safe to assume they are over 21.

Ugh, being asked for id IS one of the most annoying things. I'm 19 (and so totally understand why I would be asked) and I still find it annoying as hell. If someone did it to me when I was 60 (or probably even 30) I would be taking my business elsewhere. If they seemed nice then they might get one chance...but if it happened again then I'd be off.

What is with FML and the crazy seniors/mother-in-laws?!

what a dick! I'd have called him an old. piece of shit and refused to sell him alcohol

thats when you say "hmmmm should i card you? i think i should, youre kindve borderline!" or something..idk before i was allowed to ring alcohol my boss would do it and get a good laugh outta it.
