Being nice... or Flirting?

I am one of those lucky creatures that has the pleasure of working at a bank. It's just great. Paid Holidays, working a not too shabby 845-615 schedule everyday, so on and so forth. I love the people I work with. Funny how actually liking your co-workers can make a HUGE difference in the day. Thus is life. I have run into only a couple hiccups in my experience at this bank.
1.) Socially awkward boys and...
2.) Socially awkward girlfriends of the socially awkward boys.

At my job, it is a expected to have great customer service. This includes smiling, talking, and trying to sell a 2nd checking account. For some reason however, this gets interpreted by some as "getting hit on" by their local teller. Why you ask? I guess it is sexy for some to hear a blue-eyed, blonde hair, slightly plump teller ask " can I print you a new balance?" But, it sure has gotten me in trouble. Instead of answering questions about how much interest they could be receiving on a savings account; I am badgered with demands to know if I am married or have kids. Interesting.. ehh..?

I don't flirt with them if that's what you are thinking. I really don't. Here: read on and choose for yourself if I am or not.

 Guy #1. Silly Teenager tellers are for banking!
This little 17 year old was just lovely. I liked helping him "reach his financial goals", and he was just a fun guy to talk with.  However, I guess it was time to express his love for me. It started like this "Finally YOU get to help me!" ...." I know, right? It's about time!"
He then continued "Well, I usually let people skip me in line, so you can help me, but it never works out. I mean you ARE my favorite" ... oh goodness.. where do I go with this, thanks kid but.... "Well, that's awfully kind of you"  ... I should probably wrap this up... "Can I do anything else for you?" .... and of course he had to throw in... "Not until I am eighteen..." this was followed by a very long three second stare and a uncomfortable courtesy laugh. Well... big gulps huh....?

Crazy girlfriend #1.
When couples come in, I love asking how long they have been dating, and how they met; you know the fun questions. Well, this darling couple came in, and of course I was talking with them, building a customer relationship. Apparently, some girlfriends just don't like it when ANYONE talks or even look at their boyfriend. I didn't realize that this was how she was. They seemed normal enough, I made their deposit and then they left. Well... a couple days later havoc broke lose. The girlfriend, who was CONVINCED that her boyfriend was indeed cheating with ME on her... stormed into my bank and closed out all of her accounts. She then threatened that if I ever talk to them again, I would be in for a ride. Awesome.

These are a couple of the lovely experiences I get to have everyday... Maybe it'd be better if I was rude and snobbish, then I wouldn't risk "flirting" with all the random men/boys/whatevers I talk to. hmmm... well lesson learned. Good talk. :)
