OK I'm confused now. I know that LJ has been really behind in mailing out notifications about stuff sent over a week ago. It looks like you just sent this response now. I'm not complaining, just confused.
*TODAY* you say? The "Jeff" from your story came in to apply for a job the same day you were there and walked up while you were talking to the manager? Wow! I frequently tell of some pretty incredible "Small World Syndrome" stories but that's particularly good.
I guess there's more I'm confused about, like how the manager recognized you. I mean, the day this all happened with Jeff, the first time, did you talk to the manager afterward or was there more to this than I'm aware?
Something else too. I no longer recall how I came to find your journal, *and* I'd even forgotten you were "local"-ish to me. In the past couple weeks I too have had some interesting experiences with a couple of quasi-literate rednecks although these were both women. Interesting place we live.
As for his asking you about gifts for his gay son, you probably do have a lot more tips for how to find out what to buy than he does. You could have said, "have you tried 'queer-gear.com'?" It's amazing what you get if you only google "Queer Gifts".
