Not really sure where to post this but here's what happened. I was on break from work so I stopped by a local fast food chain and while waiting for me order, the cashier first asks about my job and I tell him I like it and it's good then he asks how much money I make. I was kind of caught off guard by this questions so I tell him I'm on salary and the pay just kind of varies on the person. He then says "I don't mean to offend you or anything but are you gay? There's just something about your voice?"

I was really just caught off guard and left as soon as I got my order. What should I do about this if anything?

lol, I honestly didn't really say anything just because I was so shocked someone would ask such a stupid questions. What do you think the chances are of me getting free food for a year or something if I threaten to sue?? hehe :)

well you didn't tell us you answered his question. so are you? maybe if you said no, he would get the hint. do you feel he was asking the question because of your voice? or do you think he was hitting on you? my suggestion would be, since you brought this to our attention, report him to the management. do you visit that restaurant often and do you plan on going again? it is a form of sexual harrassment although minor you might just deserve a flattering apology nothing more.
there may still be a chance for free food but i wouldn't go there.....:laughing7:

No, I'm not. I'm married with a 1 year old boy. I'm not sure if he was trying to hit on me or really did think I was gay, either way he was just rude and ignorant. I usually go there once or twice a month and don't plan on going there again anytime soon..

I was going to ask the same question as above, are you gay :laughing7: The guy was hitting on you

Since you're not gay, I would have told the clerk, he better have his gaydar looked at, becuase it's broken :laughing9:

probably just some jagoff playing games. Kids are getting more and more stupid.
It's all about "shocking" people. Have you seen TV lately?
I wouldn't take him seriously, you just happened to be the next person he waited on after the idea popped into his bong resin clogged head.

I think Diggit is right on this. Kids hoping to feel like big shots, saying things for shock value. They are quite numb inside I guess. I would go back again and dare him to say something else,, He now probably fancies himself the bully you have to face down.

I am sure it upset him terribly when he found that being in a gang did not pay the bills.(And the POTUS stash is not as big as he had hoped)!

Funny ! I once was talking to some old man in a park telling him about metal detecting. To make a long story short he asked some rather pointed sexual questions. Humor is always a good stop sign . for example he asked if I WAS GAY ! I SAID WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL I am trying to quit . I assure you I am not but that answer just threw him for a loop lol. some dumb ass kid deserves a dumb ass answer. try that with next idiot who tries to ruin your day .

Really,, The best response may be. "Sir, I do not want a date from you, I only want the order I placed, Thank you."

First off , you need to go in there tomorrow ............ Time it when the most people are present , esp. if it is mixed company - the older the better . Then very loudly say Hey ! When did you get out of jail ? I didn't think that girl was old enough to testify .................
