>>13749388
All the liqour stores on my side of town know me and all the clerks will chat me up when I come in to buy my 2 handles of Taaka vodka for the week. It's comfy actually.

>>13749406
Work at sweetgreen.

If I notice you order the same fucking custom salad every fucking shift I work for the past year, of course I’m going to remember you and your order. For some customers I automatically reach for the ingredients without even asking first. And they always seem happy about it.

This is good customer service. Plus most normal people would rather be in and out of the restaurant as fast as possible to savor the rest of their 30 minute lunch break, so having employees remember their order and prepare it quickly without them having to recite every last ingredient each day is a good thing. You’d have to be extremely autistic to be shy about strangers recognizing you and offering friendly, helpful interactions, unless of course this is McDonald’s and your order is a large Big Mac Meal with a Large chocolate shake and two apple pies on the side. In that case, lose weight fatty.

>>13749446
Same here. I don't even feel embarrassed buying my 2 handles/week and they are cool about it. We good naturedly banter a bit and such. Pretty comfy.

>>13749468

Hope you enjoyed decaf, cunt. It's impolite to scream at people for asking how your day going.

>>13750095
Why did you let your friend change a ringtone on your phone that you could've fixed at any time

>>13750150
its impolite to ask if you don't actually care
otherwise just say "hello, what would you like?"
not "HI, HOW'S YOUR DAY GOING SO FAR? HAH HAH?"
"Its-"
"OH COOL, WHAT DO YOU WANT FAGGOT?"

>>13750061

Seriously I don't want to conversate with those stupid kids I just want them all replaced with robots. I'm comfortable i my misery don't try to "help"or be friendly it's perfunctory.

Fuck I haven't laughed this hard at anything in a while. The fucking flag out of nowhere was the end.

>>13750424
How would you fuck with spergs like me ? I'm just tired from work, and don't eat anything all day. I just want to relax with my meal and audiobook / podcast, rather than rage at the fact I'm stuck in traffic and a while from home. Why would you want to fuck with me ? I order the same simple thing to make it easier for everyone I don't understand you.

>>13750455
I knew why the flags were down. I'm just fat and ugly like the other anon so I know she was probably just trying to mess with me or something. That's why I just took off as soon as I saw the opportunity.

>hate people knowing who I am
>have dropped from obese weight to a little under the average weight for a young person in my state
>now that I have a more unnoticeable body I'm beginning to consider buying many different kinds of clothes, face makeup, colored contacts, and wigs so I can go out looking like a different person every day
Is there actually a flaw in my plan?

>>13750488
dangerously based

Some guy was doing that to me, and the old mexican manager lady saw him and gave him a shoulder slap and goes "NO DO THAT. DON'T YOU SEE? DON'T YOU SEE?"
They never did it again. Bless that lady.

>>13749388
t. always makes the same order

It's not the staff or the frequency you go there. Why not try something new?

>>13749388
>>13749405
It is pretty weird that they can't spot a person who wants to be treated indifferently. It can't be that hard to observe when a person avoids eye contact and smalltalk. Their entire living revolves around social skills, but they lack basic empathy 100% of the time.

>>13749446
This happens to me, but there's only the on liquor store that stocks the kind of liquor that I like (it's a specific cheap vodka). I go in once a day usually.
Normally it's just a "hey boss, how's it going", but lately they've been asking way to many uncomfortable questions.
It got to the point where I've started alternating with my gf to go in, and she got really uncomfortable when they just pulled the usual off the shelf without her asking.

>I'm out of the door and back to my apartment to watch anime, food as hot and fresh as possible

why do people complain about this
it's embarrassing that you eat fast food often?
embarrassing to who?
you?
if you wanted to avoid embarrassing actions you'd stop posting on 4chan entirely, so surely that cannot be it.

THE PROPHECY

>>13751371
this happened to me at the chick-fil-a next to work a few days ago. i walked up to the counter and some trainee was there, but before i could even say hi one of the supervisors came over, silently put my order in and walked away, which left the trainee really confused.

>>13749388
I stop going to olaces that recognize or even places that don't try to treat me as another customer, there's this one one time I regulat buying the same thing at a shop and the clerk made an rude comment saying 'wow that's really your favorite huh?', I was offended because I was minding my own business and never really socially interacted with them. Another one is at the local 7/11 where the clerks try to be friendly ny asking personal questions, I stopped going to the branch near because the two literal faggots I encountered creeped me out like asking where I work or where I live they were like 'yeah you're a regular here right? you live nearby, what do you do, where do you work?).

I also stopped going to a shop when the clerk made a comment about me ordering fast and clear while the boomer and zoomers kept customizing their orders, she's ugly though and older than me so I thought it kind of unnecessary, I stopped going there for a while.

I always go to mcd when quarterpounders or 20 piece nuggets are on sale and didn't realize the counter twink was hitting on me till recently. It started with him saying how amazing the burgers are he can make, that I'm getting more muscular and how he likes that. Just recently he asked me if I have a gf and that I seem to be more of a shy guy. He also punches in whatever is on sale. I'm actually diagnosed with aspergers, reading between lined is too hard most of the time, but he has been more and more direct about his flirting attempts. Pretty irritating retroactively.

as a clerk, I love making my customers feel uncomfortable.
>you know, we have other things on our menu

>woah, you actually like this shit?

I stop going to shops where the manager is visibly being a bitch to her cashiers but try to be nice to me, fake ass bitch. Sometimes cashiers assumes I would do somethingso they warn me in advance even though I won't do it, very offensive.

>>13751462
You mean retrospectively. Also you should fuck his boipussy.

>go to the same food places regularly
>everyone acting indifferent
>noone ever recognizes me
i wish i could have a fun conversation or chit chat with a clerk, why are you all so cold

>>13751541
My bad, I'm an ESL and gonna try to remember that for next time. I thought about it, but at the same time I can't flirt at all and would just embarass myself. He's is genuinely cute and I like his attitude tho. Not sure if I'm gay either.

Kinda feel this way about the Neoghborhood Walmart I live next to. I go there at least 4 times a week.

>>13751152
I don't get it.

>>13751298
I don't care if they know or recognize me, there are other employees that recognize me and don't try to enage me. Two mcDoubles doesn't take to long. I go there to get hamburgers not friends or conversations.

>>13751952
I'm not unhappy because I'm fat, and I'm not fat from two mcdoubles. I'm fat because of sedentary life and because I eat enough food for 3 people when I get home and snack mindlessly. Why I don't change ? Because as I said, I'm used to and comfortable with my misery, I'm finally at peace with it.

I got this at a liquor store. That's how I realised I was an alcoholic.

I have a lot of freckles- that's the main reason for getting a little bit of makeup to conceal my identity, could vary my race/age just a little, and I think I could change my face with contouring too.
I did theater in high school.
I'm not talking about fucking sparkly eye shadow and false eyelashes, I'm talking about really subtle shit like filling in my eyebrows if I put on a black wig. Or adding a scar.

>>13752343
No, I've always been overweight and it never hindered me. For a short while I was "normal" and I hated it. I'm generally a loner and my unhappiness comes from the fact that I'm interdependent with humans and can't just dissappear into the middle of nowhere (have medical issues). I stay fat on purpose, it facilitates things for me since the majority of people find me disgusting and avoid interacting with me.

>>13752502
I didn't know that was a reddit thing, I've just seen many memes about it. But I've been on 4chan since before the Cracky Chan days.

I go to a local Tex-mex restaurant every single Tuesday since they do a good Taco tuesday deal. There are 3 girls there that recognize me everytime, call me by my name, and border line flirt with me. I know they do that though because they want me to do the survey and give them a positive review. You get a free taco for doing surveys

>>13751051
They have plenty of empathy. They treat you like that because your behavior is incorrect, normal humans form bonds relatively easily, and they are trying to get you tolearn this.

>>13749535

>>13751051
As someone who has worked in such a soul sucking position as waiting tables I can tell you that I just turned my brain off when interacting with people. I would speak words at them and idly jot down what they ordered. When I started I tried to be genuinely receptive of people but I realized that not giving a shit gets me better tips and for whatever reason people like me more.
