Think Before You Ink, Part 2

(A customer is staring at me.)

Customer: “You have pretty eyes.”

Me: “Oh, thanks!”

Customer: “Is it weird, now?”

Me: “What? No.”

Customer: “I work across the street, you should come visit me.” *across the street is a cash for gold place*

Me: *trying to be polite* “Oh, okay.”

Customer: “Yeah, you should come by and get a tattoo.” *across the street is also a smoke shop that does tattoos and piercings*

Me: “Oh, uh…”

Customer: “You should come by and get a tattoo of my name across your shoulder.”

Me: “I don’t think my boyfriend would appreciate that.”

Customer: “Oh, he’s the possessive type, huh?” *raises eyebrows*

Me: “Well, no, but—”

(Thankfully another customer comes in. It saves me from the awkwardness of explaining why it’s inappropriate to ask someone you met 20 seconds ago to get a tattoo of your name!)
