Just having come back from lunch, I sit down behind my island/desk that is the Customer Service Center (I'm not supposed to sit, but, hey! I just don't care.) The banker's desk is behind me. Said banker gets up to grab paperwork. The customer in the banker's office turns around.
Customer: "Do you work here?"
Me: (What gave it away? Me sitting behind the CSC desk? Or the fact that I'm wearing blue and black?) "Yes I do."
Customer: "Okay. Cool. It's cold here! I'm from Miami. It's so much warmer there."
Me: "Yes... It's cold."
Customer: "I need a job. I should work here"
Me: "You can go to our website to apply." I turn back to my computer
Customer: "Can you help me with that?"
Me: (Ugh) "Actually you have to apply from your home. I can't really help with that." I turn back to my computer
Customer: "Well maybe if you give me your number I could call you and have you come to my place and help me with that."
Me: (Am I being hit on?! I think I'm being hit on!) Um. I don't think I can help you with that. Sorry.
Customer shrugs and and turns around.
Me: (Too bad I'm married! I would TOTALLY want to go out with an unemployed creep. Yep.)
Welcome to my job. If it isn't short jobless guys asking me out, its toothless homeless guys shamelessly oggling my chest. Any of you want a job here too?

Oh goodness, this will be the first of many, some people just don’t notice the ring!
I'd love a job with you. I live in another country and wouldn't ever be on time but hire me, k? LOL!
P.S. I LOVE the new look of your blog.
For the record I hit on this guy for a year at Starbucks before I noticed a ring. Single peole sometimes don't look for it...
But I want a job with you! Does your boss send you emails that you're not committed to your job and you need to iron your shirt, and make more cold calls?
Hahah, no, he doesn't. He tells me I'm negative, takes the credit for my work, and if I'm lucky, ignores me completely. Haha. Oh man... Look what banking is doing to us!
