Have you ever been at a store, and then people just come up to you asking for help? For some reason, I get mistaken for a worker whenever I go to Urban Outfitters. I never know what to say, except I just apologize and walk off feeling stupid.
Haha...

So have you ever been mistaken for a worker or anyone else?

Ooh. That happened to me when I was in Morning Glory. Because I was waiting for my mom to get out of work because she's only the person that I can get back home. Since I can't ride buses because I have fear of riding on them. anyways ---- i stayed there for like 4 hours since i knew the lady...she didnt mind that i was there. hehh and like 8 people so far came tp me and asked me few questions about stuff and i was like "oh i dont work here" hehh... i kinda felt stupid while they feel stupid too.

Ooh, good topic.

It's happened to me quite a few times. Most of the time, it's in clothing stores and they ask if I know where a certain brand of clothes are located. I kind of blush and say I don't work there. And then one time it happened at a grocery store, which was weird since I obviously wasn't wearing the store's uniform. People these days =]

nope. never happened to me. the only reason is that i look like a 12 year old and people would more likely  asked me if i was lost and need help to find my mommy.

haha!


yeah, it's happened to me a few times. it isnt that awkward ... it's more on the funny side. i dont really care..especially since i do it to people all the time.

That happened yeasterday...I was in American Eagle & this lady was like "Ma'm, do you have these jeans in a size smaller?" & I looked & her funny & was like "Um....I don't work here. That happens to me a lot in Claires too. But that's probably because my mom works there & I'm always helping her put stock up on the walls & stuff.

Nah, I probably look too young (14?). Or I have a pissed off look on my face.

Ohmegosh. I was at the French supermarket with my guy friend and we were in our school uniforms. And this lady walks up to us and asks us where the eggs are! Our uniforms were identical to the uniforms the workers wear. Yellow button up and dark blue bottoms. ><
