My dear if you were my teacher I would fail on purpose so that I would have to re do the course. I would also be bad in class so that I would have to stay after school and you could spank me. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/21/2006 12:56:47 PM | They hit on any woman regardless of the profession. Why did this one hit on you. Because you turn him on. Its as simple as that. Men hit on women they are turned on by. It has nothing to do with your job.

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/21/2006 1:04:20 PM | I have been a server and a bartender, and I have had, many women flirt/make suggestive talk. I have even dated some, is it because it is a fantasy no, is it because they are drunk like some posters have said, no.
It does go both ways, for women and men...there is no difference, I had a friend who flirted with the mail carrier. It is because there is something there...maybe an attraction, or wanting to find out more about the person.
It is no more different than seeing someone at a gas station, or in a grocery store, or even at a park. Attraction knows no boundaries...and no limits. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/21/2006 1:18:57 PM | Are you actually saying u are surprised a guy tried to hit on you in a bar?! - just because u were his server and this boggles your mind because of all people you know how much he has had to drink? Oh honey - SORRY!!!! First off men arn't thinking like 'humm can't hit on her she knows for sure I am drunk!' - I have worked in bars and been in bars and we all know that you don't have to be pouring 'em to pick out the ones that have had a few too many... Anyway this is sooo easy it hurts - why u ask? Because that is what alot of men do - hit on women in all kinds of sad ways! Now gentlemen don't get ur boxers in a bunch - not all of you use these lame lines - a few of you are genuine - but mercy that guy was using a badddd line - so you take this fella of yours who would probably act almost as lame sober - throw some drinks down his throat giving him that pathetic extra bit of false confidence and My dear he hit on you and 1/2 the people in the joint.  | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/21/2006 9:02:43 PM | | I think there are a few reason's. Server's tend to be good looking. Entertainment, you expect a "no" so you can say whatever comes to mind without thinking you're blowing your chance, you never had a chance in the first place. Status thing, "hey man, know that hot waitress?, I took her home last night". | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/22/2006 10:50:00 AM | I think that most guys will just do it because they want to. I work in a fast food style restaurant in a local hotel and I find that (wow this is going to sound really shallow/mean) even when the Older less good looking Women are doing cash. we get more tips then when It's me or the other guy working the cash register. Sometimes it is the alcohol. Friday nights are our busiest night and again if a younger girl or a girl is on cash we will make much more then if it's me on cash.
a not so humble opinion from me. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/22/2006 5:11:42 PM | Generally because the servers are:
1. Young 2. Good looking 3. Are nice and friendly 4. As such are overtly much more attractive than the embittered "career women" they usually date. | |
|
| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/22/2006 5:24:12 PM | Okay, take a look at this. A lot of women treat guys so much like crap that sometimes? The ONLY time a woman is nice to them is when they are in some service capacity. Otherwise they never get a break. Coming from a totally nerd/geek background, the only relationships I had with women were all platonic cause I grew up around a bunch of girls so they would all go, "Ewwww, it's Stephan." and like treat me like a slime ball while drooling over guys they have no chance of getting, like Prad Bitt or someone. So most of the time, if a guy is trying to talk to a lady she is surrounded by a garrisson of her friends and they have been talking about the guy all night. at the table, in the bathroom. And thinks he either something great to laugh at and make fun of to pass the time away. Or a hunk. So if he comes over he is just going to get a double blast of shot gun mouth right between the eyes. So some guys just go, "Why bother." I know I do. lol
So when a girl smiles to a geek? It's like something doesn't say to you, "Hey doofus, she doesn't like you you idiot! It's her friggin job." You are like in ga ga mode. Try saying hey to a Hooters Girl some time when she is not in uniform. She will like just SO want to get the hell away from you.
So guys will hit on you like real hard and heavy cause it's like a matter of life or death. I mean, a GIRL is saying hi to me and like smiling! O dam, I have a chance. HEY, will you go out with me? No? Oh, okay.
dam. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/22/2006 5:34:07 PM | When i bartended there where lots of girls that would sit at the bar and flirt with the bartenders and some of them even obtained there goal and i know many a serving girl who doesnt leave the house to go for a shift untill she is looking damn sexy and has just the right amount of buttons undone, then these same girls will unabashadley flirt with thier tables in order to maxamize there earnings, Im sure its different for the girl who works at the swiss chalet but most girls in most bars and pubs well its accepted behavouir and if anyone doubts this go check out www.smokinghotwaitress.com
those are my thoughts not yours | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/24/2006 7:58:21 PM | | Too funny. I was at this Circut City to get my car stereo repaired and the only place to hang until they are finished is a Hooters. There was this waitress who came over to me as I was scoweling and looking out the window and she asked me what was wrong. We started talking. Now we are like buds. I went to see her again and she like was going around talking to people about my age cause she is like 20 and she can't believe I am 49. I get this all the time. So she was telliin me about her 21st birthday that is coming up and now it looks like she is going to invite me. What can I say? Not everything fits within a stereotype. Two cool people meet and hay, you can't stop them from being cool together. Now if it's aline like you got? From an alchy? Naw. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/24/2006 8:07:19 PM | | I attempt to pick up servers, because that's pretty much one of very few options or areas I'm in contact with women more often, at least where I live. | |
|
| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/24/2006 8:12:37 PM | There are often times where a male customer asks out a female waitress and succeeds, heck, I even know of marriages that came of it.
There's always cuties at
TGI Fridays Ruby Tuesdays Bennigans Chachki's Insert other "Trendy" restaurants here
Though, I have noticed waitresses aren't as "Chummy" as they used to be, EVEN to get tips. They are basically kinda normal or just do enough to get the job done.
I remember when HOOTERS waitresses would sit in the chair next to you , and try to get to know you better, it was a part of their gig.
Now, they've stopped doing that. | |
|
| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/24/2006 8:17:03 PM | Women that get hit on the most
Bartenders/Servers ( would haveto say this is the number one profession) Bank Tellers Gym workers Cashiers at Walmarts and Grocery Stores
Mall clerks (ie Jewelry store clerks are HOT!!) Mall Kiosks (Cell phone Kiosks)
And ANY job that requires a woman to answer calls and sit at the front desk all day.
I used to frequent a pet Store a while back just so I could talk to a woman I liked. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 3/24/2006 8:22:41 PM | In the chair next to you? Now they stop doing that? Maybe to you. She sits on the dam table a lot of the times. lol Chair, lol
lmao "Jewelry store clerks are hot."
It has nothing to do with your job.
Sorry, but I know guys who have waitress fetishes. It has EVERYTHING to do with your job. LMAO.
Waitresses, have you ever seen their calves? OMGlord!! Like HUGE popsicles. LMFAO
I swear to gourd this isn't me. lmao

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 11/21/2008 8:06:05 AM | I've had waitresses and bartenders ask me why I never asked them out.
I tell them they are paid to be nice to me. How am I supposed to tell if I'm crossing a line or picking up on a signal?
My sister used to work as a waitress, and she would come home all tore up because a particular guy always sat in her area, but would never ask her out. It goes both ways. Sometimes the server wants some extra attention, but how's a guy to know? Guys that hit on all servers have the answer. Eventually, someone is going to say yes.  | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 11/21/2008 8:31:51 AM | I think it's probably more common in bars due to the alcohol involved and meat market setting. Not only that, in a lot of bars their staff is very attractive by design so your attraction is part of their experience. Even if the place you are working in isn't like that, most bars are. But it does happen elsewhere.
One of my friends got the hots for a girl working at a photography shop where he'd get his pictures developed. He'd come up with all kinds of accuses that required customer service just so he could talk to her. He did ask her out but she shot him down.
I used to get hit on all the time when I was a waitress at a drive in and had to bring the food out to the cars. You don't take it offensively because they are usually the better tippers.
So it happens elsewhere but it probably happens more in the service industry where you being warm, friendly, and smiling is part of your job. Guys will often be more at ease to approach women who are warm, friendly, and smiling. Add alcohol and now they have confidence too. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 11/21/2008 8:50:03 AM | I think the main reason is they don't have to get up the nerve to break the ice with a pretty gal cuz you do it for them when you take their order. They know you're being friendly cuz it's part of your job but add alcohol to the mix and they start telling themselves that there's something going on between you as in the magic connection. Next thing ya know they're imagining running towards you in a field with sappy music in the background and you can already hear the train headed for Heartbreak Hotel a comin.
South Park did a great example of this in an episode called " Raisins " | |

I bought tickets to the symphony and took the girl who sold me the tickets, so yeah, I probably would hit up the bank teller if she was cute and wasn't wearing a ring. | |

| Why Do Guys Try To Pick Up Their Servers??? Posted: 11/21/2008 11:11:30 AM | | "We'd make beautiful babies together." Put a shade on it. The guy was probably half in the bag. In olden or not so olden days, the term was "serving wench", and perhaps a man got a lot more than drinks from the girl. | |
