Help at work- how to deal with this old guy who keeps pestering me?
for almost as long as I've had this job in retail (three years, más o less) this old guy keeps trying to give me dulces out of a bag. the first few times I just took it to make him leave me alone- I dislike being interrupted while I work like that, unless of course tu actually need help o you're an old person joking around with me o whatever, then I'm happy to stop.
but he's done this several times a año for three years. I just got tired of it, especially since I don't even like the candy. I've dicho no (he keeps asking "Why? Why?" even though I dicho "Cuz I don't want any" every time), tried walking away, tried avoiding him. He's at least 70 and shorter than I am so I'm not scared o anything. but the segundo to last time I tried going the long way to an aisle I needed to stock in to avoid him and he found me there! and blocked my way out! If he hadn't been old I would have shoved right past him with my shoulder hard.
today I met him again in my new department and he kept standing in my way, though not directly blocking me like last time. I walked around to three different spots trying to work near my carro and he kept following me. I should have brought my manager up but I was not quite awake yet.
should I tell him off? is it worth it? It sounds silly- "Help, this old man keeps trying to give me candy!" but my aunt and grandma insist it's harassment. I used to think he's senile and must forget that I don't want any but he seems to remember me pretty well and can always find me. I also get the idea he knows I can't be rude with him as a customer and an elderly person, which I hate, especially because it will make me look terrible in front of other customers if I snap at him.
