Asda and being treated like a shoplifter!

[Lhddujvf]

AIBU to think it's off for Asda to come and age verify me for a bottle of Baileys but not remove the tag until I've actually paid, meaning you have to then wait for someone to come over again for a second time). I was checking out around £200 of stuff, some of those gifts including an afternoon tea voucher worth £34. Surely if they think I'm going to shoplift, it wouldn't be the bottle of Baileys! Have never shoplifted in my life, was smartly dressed (not that that should matter) and didn't even have a handbag with me. I just thought the attitude of two of the staff was 'off' in their manner (" oh no, we won't remove that until you've paid!").

FWIW, I'm not going to overthink this, just wanted to do a quick AIBU!!

Life is so hard isn’t it

They can't, it makes the weight different and the scales lose their shit.

I'm rarely in a hurry, I'm happy to wait for someone to do the job for me.

Fair enough, I just don't want to waste my time.

The staff have no idea who or what you are, why on earth would they break policy and remove a bottle lock before payment for you?

Absolutely agree, the problem is with any person who does not work in the industry that yourself works in, they have no idea of what you,have to follow, I work in gaming machines, any problem that crops up, the customer knows what’s wrong😂 well here’s the testing equipment mate,I’ll go & have a cuppa while you put it right
