Not Everyone Is Lemonading

I work in a very large superstore. A young man comes into my self-checkout buying two six-packs of alcoholic lemonade. Per policy, I request to see his ID.

Customer: “Oh, I left it in my car.”

Me: “I’ll hold your purchase for you while you go and get it.”

Customer: “I parked clear on the other end of the store and I don’t want to walk to go get it. Can you just override it?”

Me: “That’s gonna be a hard no; that would get me fired.”

Shockingly, he was best described as grudgingly nice about it, and even more surprisingly, he actually came back with his ID and purchased his beer!
