I feel somewhat happy today as i got offered a permanent position at my workplace. My manager asked if i was okay with that as i was quiet, but to be honest i was just shocked because in these times, these 'credit crunch times' being offered/maintaining a job isn't easy.
Another thing that made me smile, mainly out of being freaked out, was the Indian guy that tried chatting me up in the queue at work (i had to escort him to the tills with a phone for security purposes).
The conversation went a bit like this:
Customer: :) So are you British?
Me: Yep, you?
Customer: No, i am from India
Me: Ah that's nice
Customer: Yes, you are welcome anytime!
Me: Umm.. thanks..
Customer: *Looks at nametag* Do you know your name means 'My future' in Indian?
Me: Nope, but i do now
Customer: Nice shop, nice place..
By this time customer is at till. I leave him and go check stock of something.
Customer stands there waiting.
Me: Everything okay sir?
Customer: Yes, wanted to know if you want to go for a cup of tea sometime? You are very beautiful.
Me: Thanks, my boyfriend thinks so too. *I walk away* Take care!
Customer leaves at that point.
Desperate for a visa much? I think so.
I really don't get wtf is going on in the shop these days...
It's becoming quite a frequent thing getting approached by weirdos.
Anyone would think it was speed-dating for refugees or something!
