I turn 30 next month and 9/10 times the cashiers at the grocery store and the liquor store make the biggest production out of checking my ID when I buy alcohol. It's so embarrassing. Last year I had my ID rejected twice--they flat out refused to sell me alcohol because I didn't look older than 21.

It's so embarrassing!!!

Just yesterday I went to the liquor store and as I was getting the royal ID inspection, three girls behind me were the same age as me were babbling about getting wasted on tequila and vodka, and I watched as I was leaving that they didn't even get a second glance about their ID. It's so humiliating.

I don't find it at all reassuring that I look young, not when people treat me like a child, or in this case, being 30 years old and being treated like a minor. It's so insulting.
