cast uuid to varchar in postgres when I use sequelize

Question

I have a table with a column named _id of which the type is uuid. I cast the type of _id from uuid to varchar, in order to select the records as follows:

SELECT "_id" FROM "records" WHERE "_id"::"varchar" LIKE '%1010%';

and it works well.

                 _id
