Would a guy leaving their number on a receipt work for you?

InfluencerMaster Age: 26

Nope. I have had plenty of guys try this. I would say 90% of them had no meaningful conversation with me. I bartend at a pretty busy place even during the weekdays. I rarely have time to make small talk with anyone. So they will try that method. You wanna know the funny thing? I would estimate that 7 out of 10 of them don't put their name on it with their number. Now exactly why would I call a number that I don't even know the person's name? That and because I don't have time to really get to know people I don't feel comfortable calling because then they have my number in perpetuity unless I change it. I think a lot of guys take my friendliness as a bartender to mean I am interested. Being friendly is my job.

  I definitely see what you mean. Most situations where the receipt method would be applicable is when their job is to be nice for a tip

  I just can't believe how many don't even leave a name. That one really blows my mind. I don't know if they forget or what...

  Probably drunk or not thinking. Do you think adding a name would increase your odds or if you at least talked a bit?

  Adding a name is not going to increase the odds. Talking might but I'm always rushing around and rarely have time. Too bad because I come across cute guys when I was single. What can you do tho? I'm there to work...

  Nope for the reasons mentioned. Never had the time while working. If I worked at a smaller bar rather than a larger size club it might be more realistic because I could talk more.

  Why wouldn't you just take the receipt and put it in your pocket for later? 😆

  Lol because I'm not calling someone that I didn't speak a single word to.

  Nope because of what I said in my opinion. Then they have my number and I have no clue if they are a weirdo yet.

  How would you know if they're weird or not?

  Can I ask why you think it's gross?

  What isn't gross about a man who can't see and respect boundaries such as 'dont hit on people while they're working"?
