A lot of you guys seem easily offended. The store employee is just trying to be helpful, and probably following the instructions of his supervisors. If I'm not ready for help (although I usually prefer to get help earlier rather than later), you could just say "Not at this time, thank you" (perhaps adding "maybe later" if you might need help later). I actually prefer going to stores where the employees are proactive in helping, rather than my having to chase around some employee when I need help. I've never felt offended by someone asking me for help.

 

 

People aren't actually that offended. This is just one of those kvetching threads where people get to unload about life's little annoyances. It would be great material for a standup comic. A Buddhist would confirm that life is, indeed, suffering.

 

I seem to recall a thread a few months ago where you were unloading about having been served your main course and your salad all at once at lunch. Another of life's little annoyances for which there's no solution except to roll with the punches.

Oh my God, salad and main at the same time? The inhumanity!

Yes, I really hate that. ? I'd much rather be asked if I need help finding something. ?

The more plates of food in front of me at one time, the better.

I also hate intrusive “introductory” questions in social settings by complete strangers:

 

“what do you do”?

“Where do you live?”

“where did you go to school?”.

 

I always lie, and give the worst possible answers to these questions... as I feel like such things should be revealed organically in a conversation that’s actually an exchange of thoughts, and ideas.

 

I’ve always found people who ask these questions are trying to piece together an “idea”, of what kind of person you are, based on superficial factors that have nothing to do with depth, or character.

 

Very vapid

Since I’m pretty good with accents, I’ll often reply to nosy seat mates with something like “I’m from South Africa and work for Nedbank“, or something like that.

I agree with this. During this pandemic, some stores have reduced staff. So I’d like it very much for someone to ask me if I needed help beforehand. I often have to go from aisle to aisle looking for store employees to help me.

I'm going to assume that this is your experience on Grinder and not necessarily with escorts.

you'd be amazed about how often clients lie about their dick size, age, body type, etc. 

preparing for 8" is not the same as getting ready for 6 1/2"

Only in the US: “How’s your meal?”. Always, always when my mouth is full. It seems that Americans are always looking for reassurance.

I worked as a server at an Applebee's many many moons ago. Our instruction was to check up on our guest about 2–3 minutes after the food gets to the table. Since you just started eating, the likelihood of your mouth being full when I come over is 100%. Sorry!
