Oh, this will be fun...

I stopped by the store I work at and discovered we have new scanners. We have new scanners because they read the backs of driver's licences and state IDs. I don't know about military IDs, foreign ones, etc. But they can't get their beer or tobacco without having their ID, even if they're 60. This is potentially a good thing, but one of the guys demonstrated the scanner by using my ID and it took about 1-1 1/2 *minutes* to pick up the information.

Really.

I expect a lot of complaints when I work tomorrow.

Sigh.
