This is a great bar--bartenders are cool, friendly, and the place is very nice. I have been going for 10 years. BUT, I recently was stopped at the door by a guy wearing shades, he said to me: "ID." I showed him my driver's license and he scanned it into a device. I asked him what he was doing and that he should tell people that our ID will be scanned before doing so. He looked at me like I was a PAIN IN THE ASS and said: "I can delete it from the scanner and you can leave." First, this is not the usual friendly greeting that G door staff usually gives. He refected poorly on G. Second, WHY are our DRIVER'S LICENSES/ID's being scanned and how do we know that the information is held securely? SOMEONE HAVING YOUR DRIVER"S LICENSE IS A POTENTIAL PROBLEM FOR IDENTITY THEFT. CAN G TRUST THE RUDE BOY AT THE DOOR TO GUARD THIS INFORMATION??? G: STOP SCANNING ID'S and REDUCE YOUR LIABILITY!!!
