So a bit of a preface: I work at an auto parts store and my primary job is to run parts to stores that order from us. There is one store that we service that has a middle aged woman who works there with her husband I believe. She is very nice and hasn’t been a Karen to me.

So today I was delivering to this store. Owner had ordered an oil change bundle for a truck he was working on, when we sell to regular walk in customers, it comes with a can of penetrating oil (oil used to seep into stuck/rusted on bolts to help them become loose) for free. I set the stuff down and rang the bell so they could know a delivery driver had showed up. She came out and signed the necessary paperwork. When I had told her about the free item she seemed to be awfully friendly with me and even touched my shoulder saying how much she liked that we gave them some free stuff. She also called me kid as well.

I felt kinda weird then and still do now about it. I’m not sure how I should go about this. I don’t want to be too whiny and maybe incel like, it just felt weird to me.
