Is this still accepted? (or was it ever even accepted in the first place?)

Dude.....I would play the "all black people" card, but seriously.....Where the fuck are you at mentally?

Who gives a fuck...  Isn't that the niche? Play it Exodia.... Where the fuck are you at existentially if you honestly believe I give a fuck??

I mean, so far you've proven that you can't keep up with a conversation....If it doesn't go the way you want, you act out like an 8 year old and you have no idea who you are responding to.....I haven't seen Neko in weeks.

I mean, this is a legit wellness check, but if you want to keep looking crazier for the audience, that's cool too....It just kinda take some of the sport out of it when the deer I'm chasing runs out and gets hit by a car while I'm drinking a beer.

See....That's how you metaphor....

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?

Since Boo mentioned thinking this was strange I'll throw in a couple cents. Being able to tell whether or not you should do this is really hard in a short interaction, and she could just be being nice. Unless they push on some conversation, and even then they could just like talking to you. There's plenty of 7-11 dudes I gotta walk away from like "alright, this is just a stop I didn't come to hang out." But night clerks get bored.

I honestly don't know what to tell you about meeting women, I might say at a concert. I think the metal concert I went to with Nile might be the last one I did, and a lot of girls there are hanging out by walls and staircases hoping some guy comes up and says hello. 

I think that may be good for the kind of guy you seem to be. Go outside the venue, talk about the bands and music, and if things go well ask for her number. Better than giving her yours because then she's the one obligated to show interest and humans are all annoying about that shit. You're the one interested, get her number. Just keep an eye out for one manning the walls looking around. Walk up and ask if she likes the band playing right now. Why isn't she in the pit (are there still pits?), who did she come to hear? Just talk to her like another guy and women usually enjoy that and I also think it'll make things easier for you.

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.

Boy oh boy, I come back to FFA and see this thread got to 2 pages and I'm dreading reading it, and hey, most of the new posts since I've last looked aren't even about me or the situation, so it's whatevs. xD

It's not just nabs that I've heard women don't want to be hit on at work from. I've read that on the net from women too. Though like you allude to, it could depend on the guy's charisma, confidence, etc. Anyway, my way of thinking was if women don't want to be bothered with being hit on and having to politely worm their way out of a conversation they don't want to have while they're working, the situation I presented in the OP allows me to express interest, but also in my mind, not really bother her. There's no conversation to worm her way out of, I'd just hand her the receipt and leave, and by the time she realizes what I handed her the encounter's already over. If she doesn't want to deal with me, she doesn't have to, because I already left. 

It would take a LOT of practice of just making light small talk and nothing more with CSR's for me to get anywhere near comfortable enough to ask one out in a more traditional way.

I've definitely thought about looking for women to ask out at concerts, but most of the women that catch my eye are there with a dude, lol. Another roadblock to this is most of the concerts I go to are out of town (usually San Francisco, L.A., or Las Vegas), and I have no interest in traveling long distances to see a chick I just met. But then again I guess at those out of town concerts it could be good practice for me to just try talking to them without trying to hookup.
