All I wanted was massage oil

Why do adult shops insist on hiring sleazy staff?

This morning I decided to replenish my stock of massage oil (massages are big in this house), so off I trot to the local sex shop - we all know that the best massage oil can be found there.

On the way in I passed an old guy clutching his paper bag - no prizes for guessing what he had in there - he sorta glanced my way but was more interested in getting his booty to the car. On the way home I spotted this same guy at the local park, sitting in his car bobbing up and down - presumably to the radio....:D

So far so good.

I wander in and head for the massage oil section, the guy behind the counter - older, biggish, balding with what hair he has left has been badly bleached, and he had the long scraggy bits of hair sort of 'draped' across his scalp...oh yeah we always fall for that one! - is by my side in an instance. For christ sakes does it not occur to the man that some customers might want to 'wander' in private?

"Can I help you?" he asked while trying to look down my top
"No thanks I know what I'm after" I replied
"What's that?" he says - his eye's tell me that I've already been mentally undressed and not found wanting he heads in for the kill.
"Is this for solo massage? I did a massage course and can help you with techniques if you want?"
I glared at him but obviously not hard enough cause he continued his chatter... "Massage can be satisfying but you probably already know that eh?"
I grabbed the nearest bottle of massage oil thrust it in his general direction "This'll do".

I followed him to the counter to pay for my oil, the transaction seemed to take forever...all the while he's trying to smooth his hair and leer at me in what he obviously believes is a not noticable way. He doesn't stop talking, paying me compliments and asking not so subtle questions about my marital status.

As I'm about to leave the shop he say's "Did you want a vibrator today, we have a good special on vibrators this week?"

"No"


Just like that. He could have been saying "Would you like fries with that?"

When will the owners of these stores start hiring women? This is not the first time I've had bad moments purchasing from adult stores. Do any of the other women have the same problem?
 
Bump - because my thread started on the bottom..the boards must be busy! :)
 
hey sexay!

The guys at the local sex shop I go to, are al younger, adn listening to that euro techno crap that I can't stand, but at least I don't have to worry about them hitting on me. Well except for the one guy.
 
Oh yeah.

The same guy works in the store near me.

Occasionally they give him a day off and let this skanky lesbian chick work there.
I dunno who is worse.


I order online now.
 
All the adult shops I have ever been to have been staffed by fairly atractive women in the mid to early 20's range. A couple of them are probably strippers when they are not working at the shop.

I order most of my stuff online now that I have found an online adult shop that accepts direct deposit..but their massage oils are crap - not to mention twice the price.

Love your new av Austess! :heart:
 
Hmm.. the one in my town is female owned and operated. But I've only been there once - I can't afford the stuff they sell there.
::laughs:: You can always buy sex toys on Ebay (YES, they do have them). Isn't that nasty? :)

I dont buy oils.
I'm more ya vibrator/trashy underwear type shopper.
Ha.


Thanks.
Saturday night on the piss.
Why do i always look better when i'm trashed?
 
Bindii,


I have been looking for a good massage oil - some thing that is not greasy and will not leave that oily residue afterwards.... would you recommend any ??


I have only been to one adult sex shop before and there was a young guy behind the counter. He was nice even though he did seem to follow me and my girl friends all over the store.

If the shops around here had female shopkeepers I'm sure that business would boom.

Or would that be offputting for the guys?
 
I remember the one near college, a woman ran the counter.. kind of a weird feeling being in there, and having a woman ring up your purchases or giving you advice on what is on sale.
 
It wouldn't put off any of the men i know.

They'd prolly shop there more often were they served by a chick.

I like to use a product by 'Simply Natural Oils' their Natural Oil wonders range is very good.....but iys made in Australia and I doubt you can get it there??

So thats where I'm going wrong huh? Safety in numbers...

They were hot. I liked them but some of them were a little too hot and could defenitly make you nervous. I always get nervous around very atractive women but I am getting a little better at it.


I always get my massage oils or lotions from Bath and Body works. They have good smelling stuff and it is not too greasy. Absorbs well into the skin too.

Why does someones appearance make others nervous?

I've never been able to understand this.

Take some of my girlfriends for instance, as soon as a good looking guy walks into the room they turn into 12 year old again. It doesn't seem to impress the object of their attentions.

Well, combined with the rest of his come-on and attitude, it was obviously out of line - but by itself, would that have been such a bad thing? Just hypothetically here, say the guy was not such a scummy lookin guy, and that he had been professional otherwise - would that have been some inappropriate to ask of a woman in a sex shop? After all, we shouldn't be ashamed or embaressed out such stuff should we? He says with a straight face - knowing full well he would be embaressed ;)

I am not sure of the exact reason but I think my own nervousness comes from left over HS/freshman year of college memories of being dorky and not very good around women. I am much better now then I was then but I will still stumble around what I am trying to say sometimes. If I get a very attractive waitress I will sometimes totally screw up what I am trying to order.

Yeah , odds are I will not be finding it here in the states.. maybe online. :)


Yes, you should go with someone else ... then maybe the ugly nasty man would not bother you.

Lmao!

If he had of been proffesional in his other dealings with me I probably wouldn't have worried about it..ok there are better ways to point out specials though...

But seriously I'm not a shy type of girl, if I wanted to buy a vibrator I would have bought one (ok, maybe not from that guy) .... Some women I guess would be too embarrassed to ask...

Kind of gave the feeling of her thinking, "I know what your going to do you perv!"

Just more comfortable when a guy is at the counter.
 
Hey Bindii. I've got this crick in my neck, just about... there.;) Anything you can do to help?:D :D
