‘Straight-up confused Pikachu face’: Electronics store employee kindly helps customer choose a new laptop, only to later reveal he doesn't work there at all

It's always funny (or sad, depending on how you're looking at it) to walk into a store and realize you're dressed like the employees. This gives you the opportunity to do some really funny things in that store, and possibly get away with it. I wouldn't be surprised if some Targets out there do not allow people with bright red shirts to walk into their store, for fear that they would attempt to run the store and confuse some shoppers in the process.

Either way, we've all been confused for a random store employee by people at some point in our lives. Whether it is wardrobe-related or simply because we look like we belong there, it happens. How you react to those moments, however, is completely up to you, and some people do not settle for the classic 'I don't work here, lady'.

The man in the Reddit story was approached by a customer in an electronics store, and was asked for help choosing a laptop. Instead of immediately clearing up the mix-up, this guy decided to play along, and it led to quite a hilarious reaction eventually.

Customer mistook me for staff... I rolled with it and sold him a laptop.

I find it sweet that this guy decided to use his knowledge and skill to help a random stranger, because he knew he could do a much better job than the actual employees. The customer's reaction is also awesome, so keep scrolling to read all about it.
