I can be a pretty naive guy. I am continually amazed not just by the volume, but by the varieties of creepiness that women have to put up with on a daily basis. WTF, Anon?
I guess, that's the joke, who the fuck offers a foot rub
Maybe the employee complained about having to stand for hours upon hours (because Walmart sucks) and idiot anon misread it as an opportunity?
I guess, that's the joke, who the fuck offers a foot rub
It's completely normal to ask a stranger to let you touch their feet. /s
Worked for jesus.
Anon is the Messiah
He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!
He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!
He gets us
Oof. There's fucking up, and then there's getting banned from Wal-Mart. The only lower position is getting banned from the dollar store.
In order to be banned from a dollar store, the one employee working there would have to Home Alone the place to keep you out
Hey now. There's SOMETIMES a second employee!
Well, they have to hand over the single key to the store at some point from one employee to their successor when they retire.
Good thing he offered though. That was finally big and explicit enough an offense to allow her to report him and end the smaller, subtler harassment she had to suffer until then for the sake of customer service.
Anon tries Pulp Fiction rizz
That manager? Marcellus Wallace
I hear he looks like a bitch.
I can see how someone would make this mistake. On the other hand, it's not hard to see why this is a bad idea.
Here's the situation. Approaching or propositioning anyone while they're at work is going to come off poorly since they're backed into a corner. They're a captive audience, as they must be in that space in order to get paid. In the case of retail, not only are they supposed to be nice to you, but they often can't physically avoid you lest they get in trouble for poor service. In the end, the already hard job of saying "no" is made much worse by compounding it with proper workplace behavior. And even if they would find your advances interesting in any other setting, it's the workplace that's likely to sour things.
Edit: Anon needs to do this in a setting where everyone can come and go freely, in a place where people deliberately go to be social.
Plus a footrub.. is quite something as a first. I mean, what happened to asking someone out for a drink for starters.
Anon went from 0-100. Dudes really need to learn how to slow their roll.
Agreed. And "would you give your mother a foot-rub" is not a good self-assessment for whether or not it's an appropriate opener, either.
Anon should know that suggesting physical contact with a total stranger is a red flag, possibly two if we consider it's about feet.
Nothing quite like being a creep and harassing people at there job.
She was upset he didn't offer to suck the toes too
Of course he got banned, he didn't offer the manager a foot rub too. What was he thinking?
didn't offer the manager a foot rub first. Power has perks
This is giving Asperger's as fuck. Someone should have told him to just give her his number then walk away.
Better than the one I worked at. There was a dude that worked there that was harassing one of the cashiers and instead of firing him they moved him out to the tire shop with us. He had 0 experience with cars and wasn't qualified for that even by Wal-Mart standards. A couple weeks later he got fired for fucking up too many cars but in the mean time we bullied the shit out of him for being a creep and walked him out after we closed to make sure he actually left and didn't try to wait around for her to get off.
That's the shittest department to pawn him off on lol, auto doesn't even make a profit, it's a dog to get people in and stuck shopping while they wait. I think they must have done it to get him canned because tech and service writer were super high turnover in my market because you need actual skill to do it right and the job doesn't pay enough if you do. I personally used to roll on Douglases and get all my oil changes there because of employee discount but only because the auto techs were all attending the nearby technical school and working with a degree of pride guaranteed by their TL who ran a tight ship, I trusted her, women who can thrive in that environment have to both know their shit and be tough lol.
Poor guy, gotta start somewhere though.
Start by learning, "retail employees have to act friendly and be nice to you. It has nothing to do with their actual feelings."
It's good practice for "women often have to act nice to men they don't like, because they're afraid of being harmed by them before they can get to safety."
Honestly her liking him or just pretending is irrelevant. Start by learning "offering to rub someone's feet (or any other somewhat intimate touching) is NOT a good way to flirt, even if they do like you!"
Well he learned that this time lol
Though I gotta say banning him from the store seems excessive
We only have one side of this story, and the source is an anonymous 4chan user, you wanna bet there are some details missing?
Probably a majority of the details.
Well he learned that this time lol
It's 4chan, so, no he didn't
Still, if instead of talking to her multiple timers during her shift and creeping her out with the footrub offer, he could have just asked her for a coffee after work, which she could politely decline. After that, he could leave her alone, and still occasionally shop at the same Walmart.
Yes, seeing if she's okay with meeting outside the retail context is the test. If not, go no further.
As stated, you gotta start somewhere. Nobody is born knowing what to do or how to keep mouse from pissing themselves.
Walmart employees have to be fake nice don't they, such a mind fuck
I'm visiting US in 2 weeks.. Is Walmart really as dank as I keep hearing?
Yes dank would be a good descriptor of the smell.
Nah, it used to be back in the days the logo had a smiley face, it was the place for affordable abundance. Ever since I worked there 5 years though I see the whole body of the beast for what it is, and the parts you're not seeing are super ugly on like every level from produce bags chopped by prisoners in Salinas to sexual harassment of stockers by good ol boy management on the overnight team
I hope this is a shit post.
I'll take one anon. All is good.
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
