JobsworthsAll over the world there are little people following the rules and being arsey because, let's face it, it's fun.
Tell us about your experiences with petty jobsworths, or, if you are a petty jobsworth, tell us how much you get off on it.

strange ageing standardsSpeaking of ID'ing for rizlas, we have a local shop, usually quite good with ID and stuff. One day I went there with my gf to get some beer etc. and met some of my younger mates coming out.
They asked us if we had a lighter. 'no.'
Noticed they'd just come out of the shop with fags, booze, so asked them why they couldn't buy a lighter.
'You have to be 18 to buy lighters in there'
Oooook.
Gf went in while I caught up with them, came back out with beer for us, lighters for them, and wondering why on earth they were 18 enough to buy alcohol but not 18 enough to buy portable fire.
