Me as a 3 week old green bean having an old guy say I’m cute (i.redd.it)

This is like when the guy started coming in every day asking for me. Then a few times in he told me “I looked like the girl from You, in Netflix, only prettier” you know.. the movie where the whole premise is the girl gets STALKED. I was like Nooo run away

I'm so sorry women have to deal with that all the time. The other day an older woman grabbed my hand while I was giving her change and asked me to give my snapchat to her daughter..... made me very uncomfortable

jsmetz [OP] 8 points 4y ago

I’m sorry you had to deal with that

espressnooo 1 points 4y ago

How the fuck do you even respond to that

guitarbr0 15 points 4y ago

"I do not have a snapchat."

lmao same and I’m underage. I also have old guys call me “baby”

amcc04 2 points 4y ago

being underage and working somewhere is so aWkWaRd... I used to be a hostess and I was working there while I was 16 and I had so many older guys, or even some younger guys looking at me or making comments like “you’re pretty”, or “hey sweetheart”, or stuff like that

I was so awkward every time it happened and I just kinda smiled uncomfortably and muttered something and walked away

I feel your pain.

prettypenguin5000 2 points 4y ago

It’s literally the worst. The 50ish year old man who always calls me “baby” came in again today and called me that like 4 times and “sweetheart” and it just made me sooo uncomfortable like idk what to even say to that

jsmetz [OP] 11 points 4y ago

To make the situation worse I couldn’t hear him cause he mumbled it and I had to ask him to repeat it a couple times

Oh god, we’ve had SUCH a problem at our store lately, my coworker is currently filing a lawsuit against a stalker... sad to see stuff like that happens all over but I’m so happy you’re safe and hopefully it didn’t shake you up too much. You can always always always let your manager know and keep a lookout for suspicious behavior. Go make that coffee <3

as a male barista, i definitely put myself a creepy old man and a pretty barista if she’s getting uncomfortable. unfortunately it’s a common thing...

socalgoth 6 points 4y ago

Literally my least favorite part of the job, and I'm not even some hot shit either some people just have a goth fetish and think I'm there for their amusement

TheGrandNut 5 points 4y ago

I worked at Starbucks for two years before getting hit on by an old man... Probably because I'm a guy hahahaha
