I used to complement people. But after the first time it was misinterpreted as some sort of "advance," rather than casual musing, I stopped. My social anxiety does not permit me to risk feeling like that again lol. I can't bear being seen as "that guy."
Peace.
That makes more sense. I couldn't understand why someone going around groping people would be able to keep his job. If you boss has even half a heart he/she would ban that man as a customer.

PS: The "weirdo" who asked what I did for valentines day is a customer, not a fellow co-worker. I am a barista. Just to clear that up.

But then in the second half of my OP, I talk about how I've utterly rejected engagement with a customer who has a bad reputation, not so unlike your experience. Only, my customer is mentally slow and can't help himself, but he's raised red flags due to invading someones personal space and now I basically face him with utmost caution. He's not a safe person, so that's why I have to give him the stink eye but only sometimes because if I'm TOO CRUEL, then who knows what kind of sick thoughts might end up in his mind.
