I can be a pretty naive guy. I am continually amazed not just by the volume, but by the varieties of creepiness that women have to put up with on a daily basis. WTF, Anon?

I guess, that's the joke, who the fuck offers a foot rub
Maybe the employee complained about having to stand for hours upon hours (because Walmart sucks) and idiot anon misread it as an opportunity?

It's completely normal to ask a stranger to let you touch their feet. /s
Worked for jesus.
He gets us
Oof. There's fucking up, and then there's getting banned from Wal-Mart. The only lower position is getting banned from the dollar store.
In order to be banned from a dollar store, the one employee working there would have to Home Alone the place to keep you out
Hey now. There's SOMETIMES a second employee!
Well, they have to hand over the single key to the store at some point from one employee to their successor when they retire.
Good thing he offered though. That was finally big and explicit enough an offense to allow her to report him and end the smaller, subtler harassment she had to suffer until then for the sake of customer service.
I can see how someone would make this mistake. On the other hand, it's not hard to see why this is a bad idea.
Here's the situation. Approaching or propositioning anyone while they're at work is going to come off poorly since they're backed into a corner. They're a captive audience, as they must be in that space in order to get paid. In the case of retail, not only are they supposed to be nice to you, but they often can't physically avoid you lest they get in trouble for poor service. In the end, the already hard job of saying "no" is made much worse by compounding it with proper workplace behavior. And even if they would find your advances interesting in any other setting, it's the workplace that's likely to sour things.
Edit: Anon needs to do this in a setting where everyone can come and go freely, in a place where people deliberately go to be social.
Plus a footrub.. is quite something as a first. I mean, what happened to asking someone out for a drink for starters.

I gave a girl at her work my number and she messaged me back saying she got a boyfriend but we can hang out.
Nothing quite like being a creep and harassing people at there job.
Of course he got banned, he didn't offer the manager a foot rub too. What was he thinking?
didn't offer the manager a foot rub first. Power has perks
Better than the one I worked at. There was a dude that worked there that was harassing one of the cashiers and instead of firing him they moved him out to the tire shop with us. He had 0 experience with cars and wasn't qualified for that even by Wal-Mart standards. A couple weeks later he got fired for fucking up too many cars but in the mean time we bullied the shit out of him for being a creep and walked him out after we closed to make sure he actually left and didn't try to wait around for her to get off.
That's the shittest department to pawn him off on lol, auto doesn't even make a profit, it's a dog to get people in and stuck shopping while they wait. I think they must have done it to get him canned because tech and service writer were super high turnover in my market because you need actual skill to do it right and the job doesn't pay enough if you do. I personally used to roll on Douglases and get all my oil changes there because of employee discount but only because the auto techs were all attending the nearby technical school and working with a degree of pride guaranteed by their TL who ran a tight ship, I trusted her, women who can thrive in that environment have to both know their shit and be tough lol.
She was upset he didn't offer to suck the toes too
This is giving Asperger's as fuck. Someone should have told him to just give her his number then walk away.
This all reminded me of the before times when I worked retail. I'd seen this guy who creeped me TF out for years over the course of a few jobs in the same town. His gf was very clearly in highschool and he was probably 30 the 1st time I encountered him. He was a regular at this smoothie shop I worked at, and I tried to avoid dealing with him at all costs. A few years later he's in the grocery store I work at all the time with the same gf (hey, at least she was definitely 18 by this point).
One day they propositioned one of the cashiers for a threesome. She freaked out and got the guy 86'd from the store. Eventually they compromised to let him back in as long as he didn't approach any female employees for anything.
Fast forward a few years and I was working a desk job and working on trying to get a promotion to manager. I screwed up one day and overslept and was late. That fuck up took me out of the running and my boss said he was going to look for external hires. Who comes in for an interview but that fucking guy. I pulled my manager aside and told him all the history he had at the grocery store, the underage gf, everything. He thought I was making up an elaborate story because I was mad I wasn't getting promoted, and went ahead with the hire.
6 months later (after I had quit) he got canned for sexual harassment for trying to kiss the lady working on night shift. (Shocker) Life can be fucking weird sometimes.
Everyday I thank the lord I'm not into feet.
I'm visiting US in 2 weeks.. Is Walmart really as dank as I keep hearing?
Walmart sucks. It's designed to keep you wandering around and picking up shit you don't need. You'll go in for one thing, and leave half an hour later with 14 things you didn't come in for and don't need. And also they didn't have the one thing you needed. And the shit you did buy is junk. And any perishable food items you buy will be moldy within 36 hours. Walmart sucks.
And they only can provide that useless compulsive junk so cheaply because they bulk order everything and then just change their offering price after the product is manufactured. So the manufacturer can't just say "No deal" when they already produced massive quantities that they don't have the logistical means to sell to other buyers. Walmart bleeds everyone dry. Smothers competing business with their price models, ravages towns, fuck Walmart.

Yes dank would be a good descriptor of the smell.
Nah, it used to be back in the days the logo had a smiley face, it was the place for affordable abundance. Ever since I worked there 5 years though I see the whole body of the beast for what it is, and the parts you're not seeing are super ugly on like every level from produce bags chopped by prisoners in Salinas to sexual harassment of stockers by good ol boy management on the overnight team
It's got everything. It's great for that. Way more options than elsewhere.
Its shit quality but if you want a X and want it to last for your two week trip. Walmart is the place to go.

Yeah its hard to tell sometimes if women are playing with you or not. Good rule of thumb is if its been a long time since youve hung out with a girl, give her some extra space and see if she tries to close it with you. If not no loss
Another good rule of thumb is to assume that if she was working, it was just customer service and she's not actually into you.
Another great rule of thumb is to assume she's Canadian and just being polite.

It's also a good idea not to hit on people that you only know in the most distant sense.
Looking at someone in the supermarket does not count as a date.
I hope this is a shit post.
