I'm cordial and tip every time.

(golden spot)
people start getting into longer conversations and try to take it further than hi, good day, etc.

I'm not big on social graces
it becomes awkward
waiters start treating me with weird deference and I can't bring myself to be friendly and the environment is weird now.

>KFC
>The Local Noodle Place
>A Local Restaurants

The Restaurant is owned by a Chief that I once worked with and the head waitress is his sister, who I not only worked with as well, but am also friends with.
The Noodle Place was once owned by a, I think he was Malaysian, guy. I went in there a couple of times with my mother and he remembered me from that. My mother was a hair dresser at the time and use to cut his elderly fathers hair on the cheap and he'd give her a discount. So if I ever went in there by myself he'd always ask how mum was and give me a discount as well/
And KFC, well let's green text how I became known to two of the employee's there

one of my favorite memories was when we were just starting to flirt he'd cut my wok veg into stars and flowers
a bit silly maybe even childish but i found it adorable
oh and his worried face when he first served it to me it was all just so cute

when he doesnt serve, he works the wok but its his mom that does most of the cooking at the restaurant

at home we change it up

Haha, hey, AusPost! That’s pretty funny! The crew at my local McDonald’s call me ‘Three For Free’. The story behind it is that I received my order and asked for extra sauce packets. One of the crew members (who was very professional and provided excellent customer service) gave me three sauce packets. I exclaimed “wow! That’s great! Three for free!” Then another crew member turned his head and said “Hey! That’s pretty funny! We’ll call you Three For Free!”

I'm the GM of a pizzaria and I have probably 30-50 regulars I greet by name when they come in. Only a handful of people have ever been awkward about it, at least outwardly.

A couple remember my name, which is cool since I don't wear a tag. A few have even given me Christmas presents.

Honestly this thread has made me really sad.

Like many on 4chan, adolescence was rough on me. I didn't think I could ever be normal. I was as mentally damaged as anyone in this thread. The first time I went to buy fast food, it took all of the courage I had and that was after months of wanting to do it but not being psychologically able to talk to a cashier. This, and so many of my other thoughts and habits, was a sign of mental illness. If you are uncomfortable with people recognizing you, then you are mentally ill.

I haven't been on 4chan much in the past year as I've transformed my life. I had had enough of fighting back tears while in public, sobbing in the shower, and generally detesting existence. I went to therapy and actually really tried socializing. Yes, plenty of people are retarded and tons of other people deserve to be mocked. However, lots of people are really genuinely nice. I promise you that these people are not judging you. This shit is in your head. It's from middle school, it's from high school. Please move on with your life. This girl >>10381647 is probably a super sweet person and wouldn't judge you for your fucking eating habits. The only reason your mind goes there is because you aren't properly socialized. The world isn't as hostile as 4chan.

Give it another shot. This greentext shit is no joke. Wake up and realize that most people literally don't give their restaurant choices a second thought. Realize that you can get there too. There's more for you out there. Your life is serious. You're rotting away and if your current trajectory holds, you are going to experience tons of discomfort, pain, and despair before you end your own existence.

The idea that you care so much about being judged by people who probably don't even know your real name is not normal. Everyone judges you all the time, and it doesn't matter because it very rarely impacts you in any way.

As a former customer service worker, I can tell you what I said earlier in this thread.

Customers who are extra nice, extra shitty, extra weird, or extra good looking. Anything else, who cares? If you become a regular at a place and your order isn't difficult, the most the workers there will care is that you are an easy customer. Other than that, why would they waste any of their time thinking about you?

Thank you for your post.

The sad fact is that the self-inflicted-autists here do not want to get better, they'd rather stay in their neet safe spaces until they lose all the support they get from their parents, then suicide. They somehow see this as superior to the alternative of realizing they have a problem which needs to be fixed and then fixing it: because that's too hard.

I did. There are people who eat nothing but fast food that are rail thin because they only eat once or twice a day, and that single fast food meal is most of their daily calories.

hahah. for every 1 customer like you there are 1000 others that want and enjoy the exact opposite interaction from you.

imagine how much money they wouldn't be making if they were unfriendly and unkind to everyone you fuckin dummie. make your own food if you're literally unable to handle other peoples' customer service. you're literally going to the same place every day weeks on end and you expect people not to notice and try to interact?

honestly if i were you i would try to change my perspective a little on it. you like that they're friendly. presumably they treat you well and maybe throw you little freebies now and then. just try to be friendly back, maybe get to know them personally a little. you'll be rewarded for it.

i used to be really socially anxious and antisocial like this, but learned how to deal with some of my shit and realized there's real value to be had interacting with these and other sorts of people. they're normal and just trying to reach out and be friendly, they appreciate seeing a familiar face in you. don't be weird about it and try to push them away.

my advice would be to indulge them. chat with them and give them a little time. but if you prefer to eat alone, make a point of stopping eating while you do it, set your utensils down. they'll notice they're interrupting your meal and leave you be after saying hi. also bring a book with you. reading and eating is enjoyable, and always non verbally hints you intend eating alone in peace. they won't bother you too much if you have to keep putting your book down to chat.

man if there's anything i've learned about myself it is that anxiety doesn't need a reason to exist in me. it's just there. it pushes through any situation and has discouraged me from doing a lot of things i ought to have done. stopped me from talking to a lot of people who just wanted to get to know me a little better... it fucking sucks. i'm glad i've stated down the path of addressing it and working on myself. if you feel overwhelmed in social situations i would advise you to reach out and talk to someone. there's no shame in it. there's no reason to feel like you're drowning when there's a life raft within reach.

i don't mean to preach at you. it's just that you sound a lot like me. and finding a way to work on this shit has helped me a lot.
