that is really fucking creepy. i would have keep staring and then edged my way
closer and closer.

one time when i was around 25-26 years old i had a guy ask me weird questions
like i was an 18 year old kid.  i didnt look 18.

he knew my age but still asked me if i lived at "home" and what my hobbies were
in highschool and what sports i played.  he didnt go over my post highschool
education or my job history on my resume. it was just some awkward conversation
that lasted under 5 mins.  

he also winced when i shook his hand. i have a firm handshake but that's the
first time i got that reaction.

no i never had a bad review. usually i dont even had a review. my boss tells me
he did my review and i say ok. i did max out my position and i became a
miniboss but my pay wasnt good enough. So, i went into HR  about how i didnt
like how they restructured my job and they mentioned that i have never been
late in over 15 years.  well that didnt help me any.  my boss has been changing
my time when i'm late, but still! :D
