Creepshow

[maypirate]

60 year old guy comes into the store before we're open (I forgot to lock the door again when I came in). Half the lights are still off, the front sign isn't on...would you come in? Obviously, I am already annoyed.

Eventually, it gets weirder.

Him: Blah blah...I don't like anything made after 1980.
Me:...having been made after 1980, I must violently disagree.

Him: (in regards to National Treasure 2) I figured it would be safe to show my 85 year old mother because it's Disney and anything they make is so vapid...
Me: I enjoyed it. I guess we just vehemently disagree in all things.
Him: You're probably one of those younger women who finds good reason not to have sex with me.

...I'm sorry what. WHAT. WHY. HOW.

Even the next guy in line was like "...that was pretty creepy."

So it was a shiny start to my day, after I'd already forgotten my keys. Things can only get...something.

Yes, eww. Very eww.

I wonder how much time you are given for a lunch break when you are working? Depending on the amount of time, and if you are able to step out of the store for a few moments, I could get myself over there to lunch with you (since no one cares if I take a long lunch). Offer stands, let me know!

Oh my god.

Under other circumstances, that conversation could have lead to something amusing. However in this case.. quite creepy.

That's pretty creeptastic. Men over 60 should never say the word "sex" to anyone who looks like they're below 35. That should be a law.

I understand the feeling of being annoyed when people come in to your store when the shutters down and the sign on the window says CLOSED and asks, "hey, are you closed? Mind if I just grab something really quick and mess up your clean floor?"

That is both hilarious and horrifying. When I read that, my face looked something like this: D:}

Oh... my goodness. I heard some pretty weird stuff from customers when I worked retail, but...

you win.

Eeew!

That guy sounds like a complete nut job to me. W.T.F. You always run into assholes if you work in a job dealing with the public. I used to work in retail, and I always had problems getting people the heck out of the store when I was supposed to close. There were actually some people that, even if I shut the lights out on them, still browsed the store and left when they felt like it. Used to piss me off so bad.

Um, WHAT.

If that happened to me at work, the guy would probably be asked to leave O.o

Ugh. Reminds me of the time when I was hit on by a screaming, rambling crazy guy at the bus stop once. It's not like I could get away - or I'd miss my bus. I'm sorry.
