I wasn't hitting on you.

 

Most likely that's your problem...

I love my job, best job I ever had I enjoy my regulars very much im only talking about one particular customer

 

Nonetheless, you're assuming the worst and projecting since you know very little about the situation.

I only gave you two different perspectives, based on your story of her actions those are the top perspectives that came to mind as I work in the same field.

 

If you don't agree ask her out as other have said. Dunno what else to tell ya.

The only people who call me creepy think I'm hitting on them.

Hm. I think you said she is 19. How old are you?

 

Also, you've said a few times that you intimidate women. In what way?

Posted

 

I usually buy small knick knacks.

 

Her: 'fifty cents'

 

Me: 'I think I can handle that.'

 

Her: 'You had to think about that, huh?'

 

:laugh:

 

Clearly, she can't even.

Dcannon,stop pretending to be a player.

 

The women on this forum are annoyed by your arrogance and naivety.

 

We can smell your inexperience a mile away.

 

If you knew her interest and was truly confident, you would not care about and go ask her out. Christ.

I didn't say she was 19, you did, lol. It's amazing people will just completely make stuff up and attribute it to you.

 

I'm exceptionally good looking. A lot of women are intimidated when talking to me. Too many examples to give.

Well, since you are still "searchingforyourself" why are you so confident in giving others advice? :p

 

You don't even know yourself much less the other women on this forum, yet you claim to speak for them all?

I know right lol (sarcasm)

 

Sorry but it really seems you're looking to bicker on here with anyone who will bite. Not to get actual insight on your original post.

Yeah, I used to think like this. I was wondering if this blonde 19 year old hottie was staring at me for theft concerns. She was not. :cool:

 

Who are you referring to here? A different checkout clerk?

Uh, no. I am correcting someone who is factually incorrect. You are projecting your own hostility and calling it bickering.

 

edit: also sarcasm is a form of hostility so I know for a fact you are projecting. :)

I don't assume someone is insightful because they have a loveshack account.

 

You disagree with me, therefore you are bickering and hostile.

 

Also, indecisive since you have edited your post twice already.

My sarcasm was a joke because you complained about people making stuff up and attribute it to you right after you did it to me by saying I was hostile, assumed I hated my job and now think im projecting so I found that somewhat funny. I only offered my perspective by your telling of her while working in the same field, I get that you didn't like my thoughts on it, and for that im sorry, all the best.

 

I edit every post there's nothing wrong with making sure they're clear I also type on my cell with long nails mistakes are often made.

I only pointed out that you cannot generalize from the creepy 50 year old customer to my situation, lol.

 

That is not "disliking your thoughts" it is simply pointing out it is illogical to generalize in this way.

 

You don't have to be sorry as long as you can acknowledge that you are generalizing and projecting from one of your bad experiences.

Yes, that was a different store employee.

 

I deal with very forward, emotional, flirtatious, hostile, generally emotionally and sexually aroused hot young female store employees on the regular.

Hilarious, and on a Monday too! I'm making popcorn! :lmao:

I was just telling a story, sometimes certain customers can make you feel uncomfortable its part of the job happens with men and woman and i'll often watch them to see when they leave the store.

 

But id go with my first post, about it being her job to watch as it is mine lot's of people steal and making sales is beneficial always looking for a route in.

 

These perspectives are not guaranteed outcomes, you seem very convinced so again ask her out

 

You're taking my comments too personally.

You're not addressing the problem here. You are generalizing from one terrible case you've had.

 

I can't address the rest of your post as it's so full of erroneous assumptions I wouldn't know where to begin.

 

Also, you are projecting once again. No point in explaining.

Let's see:

 

1. you speak for all women on the forum. Yet, you don't even know yourself.

 

2. You are a clairvoyant and are deeply familiar with my level of sexual experience.

 

3. You speak in the omnipotent "we" yet you are still "searching for yourself."

 

You accuse me of trolling, yet you are obviously baiting. Nice way to project.

 

edit: you've been on the forum for one month, and yet you know the thoughts and feelings of all women on this forum.

 

Anything else? :)

I can usually read most women pretty well. They usually have a "tell" that serves as a green light or red light.

 

Some girls are great at deadpan though. Like this very pretty checkout girl. I put my water down on the counter, and catch her staring when I look back up.

 

I usually buy small knick knacks.

 

Her: 'fifty cents'

 

Me: 'I think I can handle that.'

 

Her: 'You had to think about that, huh?'

 

I was caught off guard: this girl is sharp and sharp edged. I look at her facial expression to make sure she is joking or even flirting.

 

But, this girl has no 'tell.' No smile, smiling eyes, nothing. Just a totally flat, expressionless appearance. I was taken aback by her total lack of reaction and just say nothing afterwards.

 

How do you 'tell' when there is no 'tell?' :eek:

 

 

Eh, I don't know. There's a chance she might have been flirting. If not she was...well, kinda bitchy. I've flirted with people in a very dry, sarcastic type of way before but only because that was the vibe I got from them as well and we both seemed to mutually understand the deadpan wasn't rudeness.

 

But not at work. Having been a checkout girl, my interactions with customers were generally always friendly in a very...professional sort of way. The times I did flirt with customers or been flirted with it was only after some very clear indication that something was happening. If I used sarcasm and realized I came off a little dry or I'd throw a smile in there just to make things clear. The fact that she didn't seems...odd.

Waits for women to come to your rescue.

Great insights here.

 

I get a lot of really extreme reactions from women, but this was a new one for me. As in: straight out hostile sarcasm + deadpan. Haven't gotten that one before.

 

I caught her staring twice, that's all I need to know.

 

edit: catching her staring even ONCE is all I need to know. Twice is proof positive. Going out of her way to draw attention to herself tells me it's a done deal.
