All you have to do is wear a polo shirt in a store and people will think you work there lol

Women? Why not men? This is like an older woman trying to keep the other women in their place. Sounds almost incel-y.

Okay Karen.

They're probably there to buy wonder bread

But what if they respond with "Yes, how can I help you?"
NormanWilson
I'm so happy you're not a friend of mine.
Lulabel73
Going up to someone who has a handbag and a trolley/cart/basket and asking them if they work there, just makes you look like an idiot.
HaplessCat
This has happened to me (in scrubs or business attire). Deadpanned, "Now, why do you think I work here?" They fucked off, quickly.

Some of us dress up to go to the grocery store because it's the only place we really "go out" to any more...
Yes. also some ppl dress up to maintain a certain purpose or ceremoniousness in life. Whatever works; it doesn't mean they're rich or snooty
pbrtallboy
Maybe you making them feel uncomfortable. You're being prejudice. They're just trying to move through life like you and I......
AnonymouslyGratifying
My gran didn’t have money but always dressed up to go out cause she didn’t get to go to many places. She was the nicest person ever.
Also, if you think mistaking someone for working at a grocery is insulting…you are a piece of shit.

Some of those fancy looking people are on the ragged edge of bankruptcy I'm guessing.

I just ask anyone, the first person I see if they work there or not. Chances are they have shopped there before and know where it is.

mixel08
Haha same. I sometimes feel embarrassed, but then I'm usually like "ah who cares."
Dragonfury5
I don't care for customers who dress like that. It makes me feel like you feel we're not worth getting dressed for.
SenfinaZeit
I dont think anything is really worth getting dressed up for, except maybe a date.
paranoidplatinum
Interesting, I never really thought that the employees would have that opinion. Makes sense though.
alienanthropologist
Yeah I usually use the self checkout for that reason. I'm not here to impress people or talk to them, I'm here to buy shit.
KinetoPlay
Well if people were there to see you, that might matter. They're there for bread not socializing.
iwishicouldthinkofausernamebuticant
As retail, I feel that. I work by a waterpark hotel and some of the ways people come in to the store can feel disrespectful since I don't >
Have the control in the transaction. It is unprofessional for me to work like that, so why is there not a level of professionalism from you?
But also, I'm going to Walmart, not a job interview. I'm not going to spend a whole lot of time getting ready.
They come for the groceries, not to make you feel important. I’ve literally never given a tiny thought to what I wear at the grocery store
It used to be scrubs, pre-covid. I mean, I’m going to go shower and change on way home from 24 hour surgical cover because the grocery store
Clerk ‘doesnt care for those people’? Nah. Should have made better life choices
superunderpants
I agree with you. It's slobbish, lazy and unhygienic. You can garuntee if they are too lazy to dress they won't wash either.
Lol, bullshit. I can walk into a store looking as disheveled as a hobo, but I’ll be the cleanest person in there.
So someone who hasn't got dressed, washed or brushed their teeth isn't dirty and that equates to someone wearing scruffy clothes. Okay ?
If it makes you feel any better I have good hygiene, always where my mask and try to be cool with workers. I've worked retail myself.

Jokesterwild
Yeah.. how dare someone want to look good for themselves.

OP should have said snooty ACTING.
makeiteasykeepitsleazy
I’d be hard pressed to describe how you’d passively act snooty grocery shopping. Well other than perusing gray poupon of course.
Bitchen to the help…
Well yeah if someone is being actively cunty sure but that’s not the scenario being described.
It is the scenario for this comment thread. Acting.
So yeah agree. Should have said snooty ACTING.
In other words... going out of your way hoping to irritate people based on their appearance.

KootchieKoo
As someone born w/resting bitch face so my own mom brain-raped me w/"humbling" shit like this, fuck ppl who assume others need to be humbled
Agreed. As if there isn't enough anger in the world already. They are just projecting and assuming others are as bitter as they are.
upsidedownyhead
Punching up is more ethical than punching down...
It’s not more ethical, it’s just that the poors like to band together against people who have it better than them, so they justify it by
Making out that the other group are intrinsically wrong/bad because they have things the poors covet.
Endonae
And not punching at all is more ethical than punching

sleepwellfriend
If someone did as OP described I'd make a face and say no. not bc it's insulting but bc they idiots to not know grocery workers wear aprons
PS at Goodwill once I unwittingly wore a blue shirt the same shade as their t-shirts & I got tons of questions hahaha
jscmac
As a grocery store worker, I get a kick out of how often I get the “do you work here?” It’s like nah I’m just right bored wearin their shit.
NotABadLookingNarcissist
I’m not a rich snooty looking person but I have been asked if I work somewhere plenty of times. Never bothered me. I even helped some people
Plot twist: he *did* actually work there
I did work there like 15 years ago. I still know where everything is tho.

Some are happy, some are not. It’s almost as they are… people.
That’s why they say - Money can’t buy happiness.
Lol, as someone who grew up super poor and had to work 2 jobs to pay for college- that’s utter shit. I’ve never been happier than after
We got rich. Not rich as fuck, but we are debt free, own our 7 figure house and got money to burn. It’s ducking dope
The saying has nothing to do with money though. It’s about not being able to buy an emotion
