I just remembered being asked the - "Do you work here?" I don't know what caused it but just wanted to share it with ya'll.
It happened when the month before my Sophomore year in High School. I was at a department store, looking at clothes that were next to the makeup department.
First off, I'm currently a sophomore in College and I'm still mistaken as a middle to high school student depending on what I'm wearing. It really doesn't help that I'm Asian so it's even worse. So, with that, just how young do you think I'd look at 14/15?
This lady comes up to me while I'm browsing and asks, "Excuse me miss, you work in the makeup section?"
me:
"Um, no, I don't work here, I'm just shopping..."
And she made this weird, confused face where she couldn't comprehend what I was saying for a moment before going, "Oh... okay... Do you know who works here?"
I look around trying to find someone for a moment, "Um... no. I don't see anyone."
"Okay." And then I turn to leave but I think I remember her still looking at me hopefully.
Lady. No 12 year old looking child is gonna be working at Macy's. First off, you have to be 18. Second, I don't even look old enough to work at some place you have to be 15 or 16 at. Where is your head at? Where are your eyes??
But, yeah, just wanted to share that. By the way, I was wearing jeans and a generic t-shirt you only see kids wear. :T
