[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is waiting tables this summer, and gets hit on/ asked for her number. It makes her really uncomfortable. And she says it wrecks her focus and she doesn't feel like she does as good a job after one of these incidents. Of course I've told her it gets better with practice (ugh) and that this is just part of being in the world, but I still hate it for her.

I was a waitress at her age too, and remember lots of inappropriate men but I was pretty bold at that age and it didn't ruin my day the way it does hers. She and I have very different personalities. I once dumped a pitcher of ice water on a guy who patted my butt. She would shrivel up and die if someone did that to her.

I'd love some ideas on how she can respond to them, and for reframing these interactions for her. [/quote]

It wrecks her focus after someone asks for her number?  Good grief.

I can understand inappropriate comments being an issue, but she needs to figure this out.  Absurd.  I waited on tables, and tended bar for years.  Being asked for your number is nbd. [/quote]
