(2,176 posts)I'm 65, so no spring chick here. I've lived through the times when bosses had a free ride with secretaries, cat calls were standard, and then when we woke up.
So, this old guy pumping gas next to me says, "isn't it awful we have to pump our own gas? We should go back to how it used to be". Now, I hate looking backwards, so I didn't agree I just mentioned he could go to New Jersey where it's a law that you can't pump your own gas. Then he says, "what I'd like is a place where pretty women pumped my gas". I was shocked but not searching for what to say. I looked him in the eye and said, I guess I might like a good looking young man attending to my car, but it really isn't that way around here, obviously. A young man two cars away started laughing and the man turned away to finish his gas.
A tip to men. Just shut up and be respectful. You can be friendly but if you don't know someone keep your approval of how they look, what they wear, and who you want to, "pump your gas" to yourself.
