I'd like some input from the fellow gals on WDW Magic about this curious situation.
My friend and I went to Epcot on July 3rd and we stopped by the Morocco beverage stand (can't say I know the exact name of it right now) and there were two young men running the booth and one of them was being very inappropriate with my friend. I struggle over whether he was being serious or actually "trolling" because he was so heavy handed with his delivery. At one point he told my friend she looked too young to order alcohol and asked her what her "secret" was. Fine.
But...then he insisted on knowing how long we were in town and when we were planning on leaving. All of this before he even moved to serve her her beer. We said we were from around and leaving that very day and he kept saying "tonight? tonight?" and implying he wanted to meet up with us later on at some point. My friend kept asking him for her beverage (now we are here about 10-15 minutes longer than we need to be) and when he finally poured it he took another two minutes peeling the label from the bottle and affixing it to her glass as he asked more personal questions. My friend, getting annoyed, insisted that she have her beverage and told him this was now crossing the line into "bad service". His counterpart by the way was steering clear of the situation, he was actually watching with a worried smile. The guy would not let go of the drink as she was trying to take it from his hand. When he finally relinquished it we happily walked off but you could hear him keep asking when we were leaving and then he started to laugh in what I would describe as a "menacing" tone.
Being flirtatious is fine, it's welcome in most cases. But something about this interaction left us both feeling a little weird. He was being very forward and his demeanor was rather unsettling. The fact that his partner was not getting involved and simply looked over at me with a confused look on his face is telling that this guy is always doing this sort of thing. I debated telling someone in management but I decided to let it go because maybe something got lost in translation.
Has anyone ever experienced park employees trying to get them to meet with them after hours or being just a little too "friendly"?

Obviously a scam to get citizenship, we get this in the UK with Eastern Europeans.
