To not complain about the KFC drivethru man?

I've just been to pick up KFC for me and DP. I went on my own as babies are in bed and DP still working from home.
The man working behind the drive thru was very forward and called me gorgeous. I awkwardly smiled, took my food and said thanks, didn't think anymore of it.
DP was taking the food out from the bag and came across a note on a napkin saying 'send pics' with the following info.

snapchat: username
Instagram: username

I've had a stalk on his Facebook and he's mutual friends with my best friends little brother and he's 17. I'm 23.

I think just leave it, throw it away and next time send DP to pick up our weekly monthly KFC, DP is quite annoyed about it.

His main point is that it's really inappropriate and if he did it to someone in an abusive/jealous relationship there could be trouble for an innocent woman. He said if he had randomly found a guys snapchat with 'send pics' on my pocket he would assume I'm messing about.

He thinks I should complain. I just want to leave it, it's more hassle than it's worth.

WWYD?

'Send pics' is a commonly used phrase ... yeah it's not exactly charming but don't get a 17 year old idiot boy fired without a reference over it ...

Although your drafted letter seems appropriate

April so what?? Are you serious!?

If men are allowed to do things like this then lines get VERY blurred.

Staff members can't be given free reign to ask women out! Thers'a line.

This kind of thing blurs that line.

Imagine if he "got away with" asking OP out....then next week he sees another girl he likes the look of and asks her out...but she's only 14...or if he one day leaves the job he has at KFC and gets a job as a children's centre assistant and then asks one of the parents out.

It has to stop somewhere. So the best way is that it's NEVER ok.

We shouldn't think it's acceptable to be asked to send pictures of ourselves to some dick head when going for fast food. Why should we put up with that? It's not on, and those who don't agree are basically agreeing that it's ok. We all know what pictures he was on about.

I really cannot see that this man did anything wrong. He's 17, you're 23, he was trying his luck. Maybe be flattered, certainly don't be offended and write ridiculous letters of complaint.

Hmm

Had he been "trying his luck", he would have written his phone number on a napkin with "please call".

Not written "send pics" on it. Nice ppl - whether they've 17 or 75 - don't ask someone they've just met to send them (porny) pics, especially at a place of work.

Small wonder some men behave the way they do when they've got female apologists so eager to leap in and defend the indefensible.

Giving you his contact details - fine.
Asking for soft porn pics - not even slightly fine.

And I'm surprised nobody reacted more to the PP who got chatted up by a delivery driver. I'm the only adult in my house and I'd feel really vulnerable if a complete stranger who knew where I lived was trying to chat me up. When I do OLD I don't even tell dates my full name until we've met in person.

LouKout · 24/03/2017 08:14

Giving you his contact details -also not fine when he is at work.

JonesyAndTheSalad · 24/03/2017 10:56

Yes. To a 17 year old "send pics" doesn't mean a nice family snap. It means boobs or similar.

It's really not ok.

GabsAlot · 24/03/2017 12:04

a flirt is fine asking u to send pics is not

i think its good the scum have printed it maybe they'll do more than tell the area coach or whateve bollocks they sai
