I like the second half, wherein (after clearing you to fully ignore it) it goes on to state that whenever you are 'using a credit card' or 'cashing a check' {or perhaps "casing the joint" or "dealing drugs"} we will 'protect' you by questionng your identity.
Wow, this is awesome. Unnecessary quotation marks, Random Capitalization, random hyphen~ation, unnecessary apostrophe's.... It's like someone purposefully set out to make as many grammar and punctuation errors as possible in one sign.
The quotes around "Your protection only" are appropriate, at least. This is not a policy for your protection, but for the owner of the credit card you're trying to use. They are granting a very limited assumption that this person is also "you", which doesn't extend to allowing you to walk away with that case of cigarettes before proving the point.

ReplyDeleteLooks like someone just learned how to make words bold and underlined. Ugh, this one gives me a headache.
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect for the blog of unnecessary boldness too.

ReplyDeleteThis looks like a greatest hit to me!
ReplyDeleteGood God! This one makes my brain hurt.
ReplyDeleteto top it off, forcing credit card users to show ID is prohibited by the merchant agreements for both visa and mastercard.
