  • The Cookie Girl

    This last Friday night when I was Xmas shopping in the mall: "Yeah, can I get a snickerdoodle with your phone number on it?"

    Not like it was a cute guy she might have given it to either, poor girl backed away from the counter in FEAR. I wanted to walk up behind him and whop him in the head. Big, greasy, unkempt, smelly pig. The stupidity would have probably splashed on me with the grease.

    Went back to talk to her later, to tell her about this site. Poor girl, she was afraid that he'd reach across the counter to get her if she said no (but he still didn't get her number). Told her to ask her boss if she can just refuse those guys service. I can take a hit, and a bad flirt, but the way this guy asked was that ultra icky creepy crawly. His friends laughing didn't help.

    Cookie girl, I'm so glad I don't have your job. (She was a little young thing, too, like this was her first job). /sympathy hugs

    Poor girl, I feel her pain. I've had the scuzziest guys imaginable flirt with me. One guy was actually lurking around watching me one night. I had to have a mall security guard walk me to my car. In addition to my report, this guy had been hounding some other women, and they reported him as well. I think he was turned in and arrested. The good news is that I never saw him again.

      My friend has a favorite way to deal with people like that. She gives out the number of the (non-emergency) local police department.

        There comes a time in every young girl's life when she gets her first job and inevitably the first creepy old dude that hits on her. Ah, youth.

          My sister once told me about this number she'd heard about in High School.... It was a standby that people could use if they got asked by someone they had no interest in. Basically when you called, it would give this pre-recorded message along the lines of "You've called the Rejected Hotline. If you're calling this number, you're probably some pathetic loser who asked someone their phone number when they obviously had no interest in you. Man, I'm glad I'm not you! If you would like to talk to a representative to assess how thoroughly you've been rejected, please stay on the line. Not that anyone will ever answer. We don't really want to talk to you either."

              I was disapointed to find there are no numbers for Canada. I could use that if I end up working retail again. Or just all the times the Ghetto Supertar Wannabees start sniffing at my heels. Anything available for up north?

                Heh. Wow. Wasn't aware it was quite so... organized. I suppose I could have found that myself, but... didn't know to look. So, cool.

                    Reminds me of all the filthy old men who ask me about my make-out technique with my piercings (snakebites and tongue ring).
                    Uh... do me a favor and get out of my life. Thanks.

                    I have not only had that number saved in my phone for months, but have given it to nearly everyone I know and memorized it as if it were my own.

                    Too bad I didn't have it when some guy approached me one night back when I worked promos at clubs.
                    Instead of having a reject number handy I just said I lost my phone and couldn't call him.
                    He left for a few minutes and returned with two pieces of paper, both with his full name, full mailing address, email address, home phone number and cell phone number on them. "One for each hand," he said.
