How do I get the conversation back to sexy/Always-Be-Closing?
My situation is unusual. I'm fifth-gen anglo-Aussie with working class parents, but I always get asked about my accent at work. I had a speech impediment as a young kid and was also self-conscious about seeming like a redneck, so I developed a pseudo-British accent that I slip into very easily, even now that I'm actually proud of my roots! It happens more at work because it's easier to be understood over the loud music than a mumbly Aussie accent. Also, 99% of my friends/work friends/boyfriends in the past 7 years since I've lived in Melbourne have been foreign. It's not unusual that I'll speak Spanglish with some friends during the day, then speak French to some of the backpacker girls while I'm getting ready. By the time I speak English again to a customer, my English has been corrupted!
So before they even tell me their name, 1 in 3 customers will ask "Where in England are you from?" Never mind that I've never been to England and have zero living English relatives. Or I get them guessing any number of countries, ranging from South Africa to Canada to the Netherlands. It's crazy. Then I explain my situation. Most of them don't believe me, even though, as I tell them, "Why the hell would I pretend to be a boring old Aussie when I'm really from some sexy exotic country?" Which still doesn't satisfy them.
It's a massive pain in the arse and time-waster on busy nights but I can't seem to stop the convo. I've tried saying I'm half-this-or-that, or spent years growing up in certain places, but I don't wanna be caught out in a lie by someone who has actually been there. Haha. Also, I just don't feel comfortable with elaborate lies because I'm a nice person.Any way to just bypass this converstaion completely?

. When they ask, just say something like credible like, "Oh, I've travelled a lot!" or "I lived over seas/was born in..." and then change the subject. If your answer is believable, they will have no real need to pry and you can get back to the task at hand-luring them into a private room! There's no need to be honest with them, the truth is rarely sexy, talking about "your past or life OTC" will only distract you from your hustle and it's a waste of time...plus, they really don't care and are probably only asking because Aussie guys love foreign girls...so use it to your advantage!


She's gotten all kinds of responses from positive to down right fucked up. If I'm doing double dances with her I immediately bring out the big guns and muffle the conversation. It's hard to talk when your oxygen is cut off.
