Meanwhile, any long-haired guy in a guitar store:
I’m so terminally awkward about all this. Cuz I want to be sure that the person I’m about to ask for help isn’t like on break or waiting for their shift to start or something and “Excuse me, are you on the clock?” Sounds super condescending to me. So I just awkwardly default to “Do you work here?” or “Do you know someone who can help me?” because English is basically impossible for my dumbass self.
I feel like this is fair to just ask if they know someone who can help. It gives the person an out in case they are on break or don’t work there. I know I’ve been asked for help in places where I’m just another customer.

Hey he’s just a fan of the company
meme made by someone without eye problems I imagine.
I cannot see that logo unless I get into an awkward distance, so I’m asking.
Lol, if you see a person wearing a tucked in blue polo shirt with dress pants with a yellow splotch on his shirt, you can probably make a safe assumption that they work for best buy :)
The pants type are now optional (in Canada anyway) so just the polo nowadays
Customer service is also optional according to every Best Buy I’ve gone to lately.
It’s more like “I’d like to initiate a conversation with with you” and not really about the literal meaning.
I get the total opposite. I’m a security contractor. People will look at me 30 feet up on a scissor lift pulling cable and ask where to find the diapers. They see ladders and tools = must be store employee.
I own a KFC sweat shirt but I’ve never worked there. I’m gonna start collecting company shirts and waiting for people to ask me for help
that’s passive aggressive for “are you going to do any work here or just fuck around?”
Me when I buy the Lidl shoes and T-shirt:
My autoreply whenever anyone asks “Do you work here” is: “No, I’m just employed”
