Very first post, so apologies if not using the resources right.

There is an attractive salesgirl at a handbag shop close to my work and I'd like to start a conversation with and ask out for coffee, say.

A few related posts/threads suggested that I should just try standard day game, that the context isn't critical.

However, are there things that should be priced when approaching a girl at her workplace (plus here it's a handbag shop, I can't possibly be going in there for anything other than that)?

Think about what you're going to say after you open her, not days before on a forum. Its putting too much emphasis on one girl. There are millions of girls out there.

For a better chance of doing well with her, instead of asking people for "what to say" spend a week or two opening other girls to get the feel of it and then go talk to her. As for the context, I'd recomend making sure she knows you're there to hit on her and not to buy handbags. You might be tempted to use a less direct approach where you pretend to be "browsing for a bag for your sister" or some shit, but it will come across as unconfident when she realises it was just an excuse to hit on her.

Retail jobs are boring as hell, she will probably appreciate it.

Thanks both.

No, Kowalski, she wouldn't have noticed me. Are you saying that ideally I should find a sly way to get her to notice me first?

MothDance, good advice. I'm not putting too much emphasis on her, I think. It's an intellectual exercise and I want to maximise the amount of data that I get out of it. And yes, I'll go for direct.

Not really an expert, but I did come across this video of a sales girl being picked up yesterday. Maybe you can get some inspiration.
