Gas Station Worker Explains Why He Always Cards Cops Buying Tobacco Products In Viral TikTok

Gas Station Worker Explains Why He Always Cards Cops Buying Tobacco Products In Viral TikTok

Most of us don't get very many opportunities in our day to feel truly powerful.

Most of us aren't in positions of authority and there's nothing like being in a position of authority to realize how powerless that authority often is. Moments where one person feels truly powerful are often moments where someone else is left feeling powerless; maybe that's why some people seem to shrink away from it.


But every now and then life does you a solid and gives you a little mundane power bump moment where nobody is having an emergency, nobody is in trouble, nobody has been disempowered - you're just awesomely powerful.

You might properly fold a fitted sheet. You might get a toddler to eat something other than chicken nuggies. You might be the one person someone's super grumpy old cat actually likes.

You might get to look a police officer in the eye and sternly say "I'm gonna need to see some ID."

TikTok user Andrew Bilinsky did. He's been sharing that ultimate power trip with other users, and honestly people are into it.

See, here's the thing - Bilinsky isn't out here harassing officers or anything. He's just doing his job as a gas station employee.

It's a pretty standard part of his day to ask customers for their ID. Sometimes that customer is a police officer - and that's when Andrew leans into the role reversal and has a little fun.

Love his "Cop Voice"

TikTok is enjoying this just as much as Andrew does. Apparently it's one of those "job perks" that should be advertised more.

Andrews role reversal is a game TikTok is clearing having a blast with. What mundane moments of ultimate authority do you get to experience in your life?

Lawmakers have raised concerns about DOGE’s growing influence on the Trump administration and its decision-making processes.

People Break Down How They've Been Genetically Blessed And Cursed

People who draw attention online, especially if they are particularly beautiful, have gorgeous, healthy hair, or are especially talented, are always met with comments like, "God knew I'd be too powerful if I had that" or "If I could do that, I'd be insufferable."

And it does seem to be laughably true that while some people seem to "have it all," there are others who needed to be humbled a little bit, or else they'd be totally insufferable.
