Okay, can I ask for opinions from those with life experience (read: all you old dudes
) as to whether this sounds genuine, or a little bit sketchy?
So I'm a University-aged female working retail at a mall, and today the store was pretty much empty when a lady (early 30s I'd say, in age) comes in and is looking at some pins near the till. Then she starts chatting with me, which obviously isn't uncommon. We talk about travelling, like where I went this summer, and she talks about places she'd like to go, that kind of thing. She then asks me about my plans for school/work (which isn't uncommon either) and she mentions how it took her a little while, too, to figure out what she wanted to do with her life etc. etc.
After a little bit she mentions how she might be interested in meeting me for coffee sometime to further chat, and to see if I might be interesting in doing some part-time work where she is; I asked what it is she did, and said that it was kind of like an "online mall". She explained that it might be a good fit for me, because it's the kind of work you can do while being able to travel at the same time, and said that the people she works with are great. Meanwhile, she never elaborated on what it was exactly she did.
We exchanged numbers, and I can say that it was honestly a nice chat overall, but it just struck me as strange, in a way, how she didn't reeeaaally look at items in the store for too long. (After we spoke, she left without looking at anything else.)
Sorry for the long story, but I'm trying both not to be rude and/or gullible in this situation. Opinions, please?
(If any of you are thinking it: she mentioned her husband several times, so no, I don't think it's a disguise for
that kind of coffee date, hahah.)
