it's not my job

Over the years I have been mistaken for working at multiple places. For a guy who could not find I job forever, at times I found it frustrating. I'm sure everyone gets mistaken for being employed somewhere they are not that from time to time. I think it may have something to do with what I am wearing at the time.

A list of some of the places people have thought I worked at:
  • Hot topic
  • Waldenbooks
  • Borders
  • Cupboard Books (a used book store)
  • Old Navy
  • Bed, Bath and Beyond
  • Spencer's
  • Best Buy

The latest being Best Buy a few days ago. I stopped after work to pick up a movie. I stopped in after work and was wearing a reddish shirt and khaki pants. I looked more like I belonged in Target then Best Buy. Regardless, someone asked me if I worked there. I said 'No' and they said I had fooled them because of the badge I had dangling from my belt loop. Blue, black and maybe white shirts are possible in that store for employees to wear, but not red or any of it's variants. For the rest of the day I kept mulling over in my head how retarded that guy was.
