I was working the closing shift around Christmas in 2004. I was newly single and high on life and not jaded by the retail industry. I was super nice to everyone no matter what they said to me. I was about 8:30 at night and I was putting away movies when a gentleman asked for my assistance. He needed help finding a movie to buy. I first thought he was dressed rather oddly for December. He was wearing cutoff jean shorts and a white tank top that was probably 2 sizes too small and way too short. It took probably 15 minutes for me to realize he was wearing red high heel pumps with socks. It was at this point that I also realized he had his fingernails done, they were acrylic nails with bright green paint. When he bent down to pick up the movie off of the bottom shelf he ever so slightly revealed to me that he had on a neon green thong. I was so taken aback that I wasn't sure what I was supposed to say to him. That is when he informed me that he was his own boss and drove a taxi and that he would very much like to take me to dinner and a movie to which I politely said no.
I think that was probably the most creeped out I think I have ever been. A 55 year old man who happened to be an admitted transvestite asking out a 23 year old girl. What was he thinking? I have nothing against the transvestite part but put that together with being a man 32 years my senior, you have to admit that was pretty disturbing.
