Women in the service industry are paid to be as nice as possible to you, i get that. But the thing is, is there a way to tell if they're actually interested?

I ask because today, i had an experience. I went to Red Robin with my dad. THere was a waitress there. I think she was a trainee. She was following our waitress around, i could hear the waitress giving her instructions about doing her job.

Anyway, she came to our table with our main waitress. She didn't talk or anything. She let the other waitress do all the talking. While she was explaining some of the specials to my dad, i glanced up at the trainee and just smirked at her. Like, a smug smirk, not a happy smile. She giggled a bit. But that was it, she approached our table on her own (Without the trainer, to fill up our drinks.)

She asked a couple more times if we needed anything and how the food was. I told her everything was fantastic.

She was pretty smiley when she kept coming to our table.

It was a minimal experience, but i think i should've played it with her. Tried to get a number or something. But I don't want to jump to conclusions or be one of those creepy guys who hits on waitresses just for being nice. But i legit think she may have had some interest. I didn't push or anything, since my dad was there.
