Here's a story about how brave I was at work tonight:
A really cute guy came into my game store tonight...we flirted a bit...I rang him up, he left...and Carlos, my coworker, kept pestering me about it. He kept saying I should look up his info and call him (because he did a trade-in, which requires us to take their info and save it in the register, and I had also signed him up for our points card, which is another info saver). I gave in to peer pressure, and looked it up, called him...got the answering machine and hung up. A few minutes later, he called back and Carlos handed me the phone, with this look on his face. I said "No way!" And he just nodded, laughed and walked away. I answered "Gamestop, Rebecca speaking" and he was like "Hey, it's the guy you sold such and such to" I told him that I forgot to give him a promotional pamphlet with the store's points card, and said it came with a coupon....such a LIE! haha there's no coupon in the pamphlet. He also asked if he needed the game disc for a certain game expansion he bought, and he in fact needed it. Turns out it was one of the games he sold back to us an hour prior. He came back, I wrote my number down and put it inside the pamphlet with his receipt. XD
I'm still a little giddy and flustered from it.
My heart was all THUMPTHUMPTHUMP
I'm way too proud of myself. He was really cute, and pretty nice....and fit too. haha
I gladly blame Carlos, who kept saying to me to stop being a vagina and just do it.
I was talking to my friend about this moments ago, and she said she'd never have the courage to do it, and that it'd be like a smack in the face to not hear back from them. It's not really a smack in the face in my mind..You hafta put yourself out there and accept rejection as a part of life. I guess I also use it as an acting exercise, because as an actor, you have to be able to accept the worst rejections, doing things you're not that comfortable with, and people even sometimes talking to you like shit. It's worth the moment of hurt though, because the rush you get from putting yourself out there, and I just feel so proud of myself for actually fucking doing that! XD
Tonight is a good night.
