The argument for fake IDs

By bryans_fresh - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I wanted to use my gift card for a liquor store. I went to pay the cashier, who said he needed to see my license. I gave it to him, along with my gift card. After paying, he asked me if I wanted him to cut it up, since the card was now worthless. I said yes. He cut up the wrong card. FML

#4: Actually, the cashier is required to hold the license in their hands and examine it closely to make sure it isn't counterfeit. Most licenses have a watermark that reflects when held the right way, this is why they are supposed to actually hold it in their hands. So, in short: shut up, you have no idea what you're saying. As for the OP, sucks dude. I hope you're getting the cashier to pay for it!! :/

Ok I work retail and have been a shopper for many years. There are no cashiers that would cut up a gift card. A credit card yes. Gift card? No. So YDI for you dumbass for not taking the license back after she checked it. And fail for being an idiot with a fake story.

damn... someone thought it would be nice to get you a gift card for a liquor store? wino. lol

For those wondering about a liquor store with gift cards... it happens. In Ontario, the sale of alcohol is controlled by the government and outside of bars and restaurants, is only sold to the public in a chain of government owned and run retail stores called LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario). They sell gift cards... http://www.lcbo.com/gifts/giftcards.shtml Don't most places that have gift cards allow you to reload them with more money?

how can you mistake a license for a gift card? you should slash their tires!

Oh, yeah ....and at The Beer Store. LCBO stores sell beer as well as wine and liquor in Ontario, but The Beer Store only sells beer.

I feel so bad for you... Dumbass casheir

MAN THAT SUCKSSS! Dx Still, wtf, just show it next time, LOL #4 xD Get him to pay for a new one.

We learn valuable lesson from OP and #34 that cashiers cannot be trusted with scissors. But seriously who buys someone a gift card for a liquor store?

I've managed a high volume liquor store for a few years now and I sell about ten gift cards a week.
