I'll try to offset that the next time I work at CVS by discussing atheism with a customer.

Are you in a particularly religious area of the country (whatever country it is)? lol, no, and that's partly why I was so baffled...I'm in the Washington DC area, we're mostly IT and Govt. Security development workers here, and while we have our share of religious people, they're not usually quite so forthcoming, the nuts usually stay well out in the boonies...hours away... I live in the DC area too. That is kind of weird, but not unheard of. I once got chased around Tyson's Corner in Northern Virginia by a crazy fundie lady. Looking back on it now, it was funny. At the time? I was scared shitless.

When I politely declined it turned into a game of "Let's Chase Lazy Around A Bigass Mall!"

I didn't know they were allowed to do that. At my work, if you start preaching to the customers, you'll be sent home real fast.

If it hasn't already been done someone needs to call the store and complain.

If she does it again, I'll definitely complain tho. Honestly, she looked about as uncomfortable as I felt...I used to hate that when I was in youth group back in the day...having to do "outreach" to get people to attend our youth group or "come to jeebus" or whatnot...made me sooooo uncomfortable...
