In case I haven’t made it obvious by now the store I work for is basically the social club for old people. I’ve been hit on constantly by old pervs for the last 4 years of working there. One of them (an arrogant asshole at that) tried to give me gifts before Christmas through our store manager who accepted them on my behalf without my permission. Most women in the store have had history with this guy, He’s rude, crude and believes women only work there to find dates. (He used to date one of the ladies and when she dumped him he would eyeball her constantly whenever she was there) He’s even tried to give me expensive valentines day gifts before a couple years ago which I politely gave back to him. What kills me is that the store manager knew I did this in the past and STILL accepted these Christmas gifts for me. He’d rather the customer be happy at the expensive of my comfort.
What was in there? I don’t know. I gave it back to the store manager and said “No thanks”. I’m sorry but I’m the kind of person that doesn’t go accepting gifts from strangers. Especially ones who are known to be total lowlife douchebags and suddenly decide to be nice for whatever reason. He confronted me tonight and acted like I got a present even though I know he got it back, people who knew saw him walk out of the building like he got his nuts kicked. So I played dumb too and it pissed him off even more “How was my present? Which one I got a bunch!” In the end I guess he got me some expensive earrings and he said something to the effect of “I know what women like and have good taste. Ask my mom”. Which is funny because at his age I’m surprised his mother would still even be alive. He can’t even afford a car, so I’m going to guess he’s yet another basement dweller that likes to hang around our store for 6 hours a day.
Now knowing that once again he got me expensive jewelery I’m even more happy I gave it back. I would have felt even more uncomfortable accepting it expensive goods from someone I hardly know and really have no interest in getting to know. Another thing I find really strange about this whole thing is that he’s a morning person. I’ve been seeing him show up during evenings now. Rather interesting…
The funny thing is that if these people knew what I was really like they wouldn’t last 5 seconds…
