      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.”

        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.

        As stated, you gotta start somewhere. Nobody is born knowing what to do or how to keep mouse from pissing themselves.
