Okay, so I was trying out that thing about uh, not saying that I'm just fine. That blew over his head. So I decided to ask him how he was doing. This is a much older man; only being told by the visible all white hair, receding hair line, and all white facial hair. From what I remember, this is the conversation.
Me: How are you doing tonight?
Pat: I'm doing fine.
Me: That's good. How long do they keep you here?
Pat: From 3PM to 12AM
Me: Gosh, that's a long time. But you do what you have to do.
Pat: Yeah. We're short on people. And others take a week long vacation.
Me: Do you like this shift?
Pat: No, not really. But I don't have a choice due to the amount of workers.
Me: Yeah, I see this one guy here at like 6:30 in the morning. That's so early. ( Me hopefully trying to get the right name.)
Pat: That's the shift that I normally work, but they have me stuck on this one.
Me: Oh, I understand.
And yeah, my mind kind of blanked out after that; and this conversation may still be innacurate.. But one thing sunk into my mind as he said this one line "Be Sweet hun" and smiled with either a few missing teeth, or those that were slowly decaying. I believe that I gave this man the wrong impression, or he just speaks this way; therefore, I have no right to judge. The way he was looking at me when he said it, was suggestive. But then again, it could have just been me, just me being wrong. But a few short times, I have attracted the pervy kind of men that don't care how old you are. Hell, at least I'm attractive to some men? Bleghh, can't believe I even said that. I am a bad story teller.
But, Pat is not the guy that I have been craving an attention of notice from. Nor is this the man that I have had an extreme interest in for months now. Haha, the right guy refuses to wear a name tag for me. So, I've used up my ammunation; now I have to think of something else that I can speak to the right guy about. I don't want to say the same thing twice, and these two know about it for some strange reason.
This post is... slightly more... animated? I suppose. I wish I could snap a photo of the right guy, but that's stalker -ish. Buttercup, if no one has seen him, I want you to at least have a glance. How are things going for you by the way?
Thoughts, concerns, help? I'm really just a lost puppy
