(A customer wishes to pay with her debit card. I flip it over and see that it says ‘see ID’.)

Me: “May I please see your ID?”

Customer: “Why?”

Me: “It says ‘see ID’.”

Customer: “No it doesn’t!”

Me: “Yes, it does.”

(I show her the small writing that says ‘See ID’.)

Customer: “I know that’s there.”

Me: “Then may I see your ID?”

Customer: “That doesn’t apply to me.”

Me: “I don’t understand.”

Customer: “I put that there so that you can catch thieves that might use my card. It only applies to thieves, not me!”
