I'm sorry too.

And yeah. Dead unprofessional. If you feel you need to check ID, just ask to check ID. Don't lay it on thick what a prat you are.

I used to get that a lot with phonecalls:

CALLER: May I speak to Laura pls.
LAURA: Speaking.
CALLER: No, I mean Laura.
LAURA: This is Laura, who's this?!
CALLER: Well when you do see Laura, please...

I cheer her on. Go, K***y, go!

I ran into that back when I was a phone center associate (read: operator) at a local Home Depot. I was constantly told I didn't know what the $%&@ I was talking about. All. The. Time. The other women in the store were, too. I recall this guy who gave one of the female Hardware associates a hard time because he insisted she knew nothing about the department and he demanded to speak with the department manager, thinking he'd get a man - but no, the department head was also female. He walked out of the store cursing. There was another guy who didn't like the fact that he was talking to a woman, so he looked around for a male associate in that area. The one he eventually found didn't have an answer for him and deferred to the woman with whom he was initially speaking.

Sorry to hear about your experiences with MR. @sshat. I feel your pain though I have had that happen to me as well. I also had someone out right say my id was fake before because the gender they percieved me as did not match the gender on my is. Which was a mixed blessing for me but I wasn't able to buy a $1.50 DR. Pepper, and had to goto the drug store next door to get it. (My id said male on it still at the time.)
