    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.
