Annoying... Situations - Beyond Tiki

What bugs me more than ANYTHING, is when I'm out and about, just trying to be a normal citizen, and anyone whom I have EVER waited on in my 12 years of working retail, feels like they're my best friend, and asks about work related stuff. When's the next sale, do you have Chippewa style 1199's in a 12 EEE, did my CD come in yet? And apparently it has also given me a "Retail" Aura, because people think I WORK wherever I shop! I was in KayBee Toys in Connecticut one time, wearing my Badda-Bing Club Bowling Shirt, and this mother came up to me wanting to know when the new Barbies would be in. She didnt believe me when I told her I didnt work there, and wanted to talk to my manager about my customer service attitude!
