You Know What Grinds My Gears?

I just tell them they are essentially hitting in a dude, and they get so confused and uncomfortable, they stop.

I just tell them they're basically hitting on a Dude, and must be gay. They're so uncomfortable, they stop.

Today I had a customer who tried to get my attention by saying "hey, sweetie! hey darlin', hey honey!"

He was promptly ignored, then coldly disrespected.

You say "excuse me, miss", you assclown.

Maybe he was from the South on vacation.

I briefly considered that but upon further investigation he didn't seem to have the accent. (He just yelled "do you have access to [this case]?" And he sounded like he was either from the area or Northern CA.)

He was dressed very nicely - I assume he was staying in the hotel next door for whatever reason. But even if he was from the south, it's not like they're stuck in the 19th century where it's ok to do that.

That doesn't sound all that disrespectful at all. A lot of the time when Im in a clothing store, a woman who works there will say "Honey, do you need a hand with anything?"

I kinda like it.

I hit on a lesbian once. When the truth was revealed I did the classy thing: feel mortified, mumble pitiful excuse, leave scene entirely too quickly. But that's just how I was raised.

Your parents taught you a contingency for when you're busted for hitting on a lasbian?
