I work at Famous Footwear. Today was a VERY busy day.
I was constantly having to watch suspicious looking folks. I was busy doing this, when a person who didn't look suspicious at all came up to me. I honestly hadn't noticed her before. She said "Are you following me, because you seem to be everywhere I am." I looked at her for a second. A middle aged white woman with no large purse and no large bag and normal-fitting clothes (nothing baggy to hide shoes in), and apparently not acting in any suspicious manner or I would have noticed her by now. I said "No, I didn't even notice you until now." I was trying, at that very moment, to watch two very suspicious looking young people. She looked like she didn't quite believe me but she walked away.
I was trying to think of why she thought I had been following her, and I realized that she must have been in proximity to the same places the people I WAS following were.
It's funny, because, I'm used to people I am watching getting upset with me, but this woman was totally off my radar. She could have stolen shoes and I would have never known about it, unless she was acting suspicious in some way beforehand.
