Finding Someone...on the Clock? (2)

I'm a workaholic with not much free time to go out and chill. I work in retail, so I see lots of people throughout the day. I was wondering, how does someone like me actually interact with someone that catches my eye, without being "unprofessional" during work?

I assume you mean customers and not coworkers?
(Are you male or female?)
I think the best you could do is dress and groom as well as possible each day. If you're doing sales, being just a little flirty with customers could be a safe bet.
Eventually, someone may give you a phone number or make a pass at you. It might not be one you're actually interested in, but you have a good excuse to decline right then by gently referencing some obscure corporate policy about not dating customers. (Or just not call, I guess)
In most cases though, as a consumer, I would dismiss any friendliness on the part of retail workers (he/she must be on commission).
That's all I got.
