"Can I have your phone number?"
"Sorry, I'm already married, but thank you for the offer." "Sir, I need your phone number to complete this..." "No you don't, sweetheart. I'm paying cash. Since when do you need my phone number for a cash transaction?" "Sir, I'll have to call a manager if you don't give me your phone number." "Go ahead. Call a manager. While you're doing that, I'll call the police, and I'm sure they will be more than happy to hear this explanation." "I'll just put in the store number." "Yes, that would be best for all concerned." Radio Shack used to ask for personal info. I used to give 3 Church Rd., Suffern. No one ever got the joke...

BTW Crimson Ghost, I have to say -and probably should have said earlier- your username just screams euphemism for period to me. am I alone in this?

Never thought of it like that.
Period to me always meant "Thank God! The condom didn't break..."

Here we are never asked personal details in shops, so I admit it's not something I can relate to. That said, I can't think of any reason NOT to give my postcode if requested. If someone in the shop is intending to stalk me, I imagine the easiest thing to do is follow me home! My postcode only gives the path where I live after all.
As for phone numbers, well if asked I will give my home phone number, and have happily done so online. I've only had one unwelcome call, and that was from an Indian gastric band company - my own silly fault for making the enquiry. Europe is perceived as a place of binding bureaucracy sometimes (esp by the British press) but I'm pleased to hear at least I have the ability to shop without worrying I'll be harrassed afterwards. Oh - Benefit have my details. But they're American anyway. And all they do is send me occasional emails. I have a junk filter for that. |
