a little love from a forum bartender

I'm sure the carding requirement is more hated by the bartenders than it is by the patrons. Just comply with a smile and shut up. You'll get your drink.

My neice worked for a large national restaurant change up until this week. She had been there for 4 years and they have a routine undercover verification operation that they operate to ensure their employees are carding EVERYONE UNDER 40. They sent in a 38 year old guy with some gray hair and she didn't card him. She was immediatly dismissed by the corporation after significant protest by the restaurant owner/manager to keep her as she was an excellent waitress. Sad.
