It's annoying when things like this happen because I like to think I follow the rules and it's kind of embarrassing when they tell you off!
Hence why, if it were me, I would have challenged them on whether they were making exactly that assumption.
If they were, they would have earned themselves a complaint.
If not, I'd have asked why they were asking me to remove them from around my neck.
