"Often the checkout person is too busy, tired or fed up to look at the customer and some might mistakenly ask the person before looking properly
Lets see how clever you would be after sitting for 8 hours on a checkout at min wage."
I know I'd be clever enough to distiguish between a pensioner and a teenager.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

So when the manager came along and put the bottles back on the shelf, was he right in doing so? Did he do that without looking? No, it was following rules and not applying and sense or judgement to it....Originally posted by _V_ View PostOften the checkout person is too busy, tired or fed up to look at the customer and some might mistakenly ask the person before looking properly.

I believe it is the law. Once challenged, the person must produce ID prooving they are 18+, or by the law, the sale cannot proceed. The manager was following the law.Originally posted by daviejones View PostSo when the manager came along and put the bottles back on the shelf, was he right in doing so?

Even if the person is 200 yrs old, once challenged, they must produce ID, the store or the staff could be prosecuted if they say "on 2nd thoughts, it's okay".Comment
