Doom Metal Alchemist Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I was shoe shopping today, and the customer service rep who rang up my purchase was a very cute latina (totally my type), and I was nervously debating with myself if I should write my name and number on the store copy receipt, in hopes that she would go, "Ooh, he likes me, he's cute, I should text him." I'm sure I would've chickened out, but it didn't matter anyway since I ended up having to sign on the digital pad rather than on a paper receipt so I never had a pen in my hand so I couldn't even give her my number on my copy either. Is this practice still accepted? Or was it ever even accepted in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITasteLikeSex Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Unless you're Chris Evans level attractive, that's likely considered creepy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsar4 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I wouldn't put personal info on any store copy. You don't know who gets to see it and what they'd do with it. You might even have gotten her in trouble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Well that seems to be a unanimous "no." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 What's the harm.. Actually if they save the store copy reciepts for when the days closed out on the register you might have a bunch of random people looking at your number though.

tsar4 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Writing a note on a napkin might have been a better idea. Something she alone might see & keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this practice still accepted? Or was it ever even accepted in the first place? I mean, I don't think it's creepy. Next time take mix's advice though, follow her on IG and buy at least $1000 worth of her shower water I've had a couple drinks ^ that is 100% a joke I think a better/modern approach would be "Hey! I think you're cute, can I give you my number?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupin_bebop Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Short answer: No. Long answer: Unless you are Tom Cruise, Chris Evans, Ryan Reynolds, Idris Elba, Michael B.

It's funny because I work night shift 4 / 10's and every week I'm out doing shit at least two of my three days off, and about every other week all three of my days off.

cyberbully Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Never fear, I am here with actual advice and not a laundry list of shit you're failing at. First off....Anyone who told you not to do this because you're not......I don't know many of those people listed....But the point being, your aesthetics have nothing to do with your charm, charisma and confidence....Areas you should work on but definitely will work better in your favor as a real person and not some painted poster boy. I've told your before...This isn't a movie. I don't think she would have found the gesture creepy....But really fucking corny.....Make sure you give her the boxes to check if she likes you or not. As a matter of fact, you get confidence and charisma bonus points if you ask for HER number. Now back in the 90s, it was a lot more likely she would just give you the number to a bank or some shit, but instead of giving you her number, she might just ask you to follow her on IG or some shit. This gets you a step closer and she gets a follower. Now if you are pushing thirty, making 10k a year and live with a house full of equally destitute "friends" then you probably don't want to be bothered at work because you are jaded beyond belief....But as long as there wasn't no line or a supervisor breathing down her neck, there is absolutely no reason you couldn't squeeze in some small talk. Especially retail....Most of these people are so beaten into a robotic and addled state that anything to break the monotony is welcomed. I met a girl at Rue 21 when I worked at Staples because I used to just drop by and visit on my lunch. We just chit chatted when I passed by and on social media for years and one night after so long, we went out. Turns out she's a loud drunk and I'm mean to loud people when I'm drunk so it didn't work out in the end, but I got my shot.....We're still cool, but we know better now Anyway, if you go in again....Just man up and ask if she'll like to do something when she's off....it's all about taking the shot dude....And make sure it's a shot and not this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
