Same thing that always happens, I got asked where something was in a store I don't work at.
Doesn't matter what I wear, apparently I just scream "retail employee". It's gotten depressing, kinda.
Try wearing a T shirt 'I am not an employee at this shop'
"Haha great joke! So where can I find the updog?"
What's up, dawg?
I get this sometimes if i wear my black work polo to a shop after i finish work, though i take a small bit of satisfaction in saying 'yeah no idea mate' and turn and walk off and keep browsing. They usually stare for a few seconds with mouth open before they realise the assumption/mistake they have made
