Because of Provo City laws and restrictions on who can sell alcohol to people, I have to do a lot of the alcohol sales at Macey's. I've seen a good deal of things that people try to use as an ID. And I've had to turn down a bunch of people because they didn't have a valid U.S. Government issued ID that we could use. Yesterday, I got a new one though. The person was from some Asian country, and just kind of looked like they could just barely get by with the English that they knew. I asked for ID for the two cans of beer she was trying to buy. I never expected to have someone hand me their BYU identification card so that they can buy beer. But that's what happened. I'm hoping that I can get someone to hand me their temple recommend for their ID.

Judge not. I'm sure she was just buying it so she could make beer-batter onion rings. [wink][wink]. Not everyone at BYU is LDS so it really isn't that surprising. Now when you get someone IDing with their temple recommend, I wanna hear about it!

Well that's what we decided afterward -- that it was likely just for some recipe that the alcohol was going to be burned off anyway. Frankly, I don't care. But it was just funny that they tried to use their BYU ID. I got a kick out of it anyway.
