In order to go into the shop to pick up food or any other items you have to leave your contact details. Why the burger shop needed to know mums age is a mystery. Surely name, phone number and email is enough?
It did feel weird for mum to be in a shop too, as the only place she has been in 7 weeks is the supermarket. The library opened yesterday but mum only popped in quickly to drop off her read books, she still has a big pile to read.

What a nice treat; yum! Agreed, though, it was weird to ask for age--maybe for legal liability? In that case they need only ask if you're over 18 or whatever New Zealand's legal adult age is. Here in Canada you can't ask someone's age directly, though you can ask if you're over the age of 18 or you can ask for an age range.
ReplyDeleteMore things are opening up in our province tomorrow and Tuesday (Monday is a holiday in Canada, Victoria Day), but restaurants still can't open for dining in. They've been able to stay open for drive-through take-out or delivery, though, via one of the several food delivery service apps. I'm looking forward to being able to walk into a Starbucks for a tea latté to go! :-)
Take care, have a great weekend, both of you.

ReplyDeleteit seems bizarre that small shops need to get details but large supermarkets are not
ReplyDeleteI don't know about New Zealand, but here where we live (at least, our city), they started to allow people to buy alcoholic drinks with their takeout. Maybe they needed your human's age because it was something that automatically needed to be filled in, even though she just got a milkshake.
ReplyDeleteIt looks tasty!
