Fired for flirting....

Yesterday a co-worker and I went to Subway for lunch. This is a fairly regular thing for us, and we usually take an order with us. There have been two early 20-something guys there that flirt with me. Harmless, completely harmless, but it always makes a girl feel good to have some attention paid. Well, yesterday we go in, and "the boys" as I call them were gone. So I asked the owner who also works there where they were. I was told they were fired for flirting with the customers.

Now, don't get me wrong, I had no thoughts that I was the only one they flirt with. But how could they be fired for flirting?!?!?! The owner said if they could not respect the customers and not flirt with them then they could not work there. OMG....you know, it may be sexist (against my own gender) but I liked the flirting. I mean it was totally harmless, and it caused me to go there more frequently. I guess if the flirting went further with other female customers I could see their point, but I know what they said to me was totally harmless and completely good natured fun.

So now, my semi-weekly flirt is gone...oh well.

hmm, I think I would be more likely to be a regular customer at an establishment where there were 20 somethings that flirted with me. Sorry, "your boys" are gone ;)
