Conned

Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

Stupid Tesco Staff.
Back when I was 17 some mates and I (they too were 17) went down to the tesco in Hemel Hempstead to procure a 24 pack of Carling Lager. It was about 10pm on a friday night so they had eyes for us. Before we even got to the till with the prize we were intercepted by a rather bitchy looking lady, clearly enjoying her role as a "Customer Service Supervisor" read "Till slave driver." Anyway she demanded that we ALL had to have ID to make the purchase so myself and my 2 friends all pull out our recently aquired driving licenses, and if you do the math each one says we are 17 - now perhaps it was the confidence with which we showed them or more likely the bitch couldnt add up, but she looked intently at each and then let us make the purchase! Happy times.
Incidentaly I worked at Tesco in stevenage as a 16/17 year old and you know how you see the young uns raise their hand to get authorisation for a sale? Well I never bothered and just sold alchohol as I pleased at 17. Corporate sabotage eh.
