I am sorry to see Todd get in trouble like this'although Fast Lane workers have been doing this with kids they know since they took over out there. Usually it had been at night and with kids they knew were under age. Was acually in there one night and watched the clerk sell to 2 boys who were minors and then card the next person who was a 23 year old girl. After talking to someone who was in there at the time, as usual only one register was open while the other person working the shift stood and talked, the man had a long line of customers waiting. He was wrong not to card the kid but he was getting flusttered with the impatient customers and trying to hurry the line up. Most people don't like going to the Trading Center because of the owners, but, do because you can at least there you can get waited on in a speedy manner. Also much more pleasant employees.

I'm sure Todd will be fired, just like the others before him that were appreciated by the customers for trying to make their stop there quick and pleasant. Better wake up Warrenton Oil because if Magee would happen to sell the Trading Center to someone who knows what they are doing you will loose the locals.

I'm a high school student and we always buy our liquor from there, its a shame to know we will have to take our business somewhere else.
