Seriously though, l guess a big part is that I'm afraid of rejection at any level.
Yes, I know this is what guys go through every time they talk to girls.
They smiled at you, so they're not going to reject you. And even if they did, who cares?
Guy 2 asks what's playing at a certain theater. You say, "I don't know. I'm new in town. Is that a good theater? Do they usually show interesting films?" (Optional: "What kind of films do you like?") Anything to keep the conversation going. Let him take it from there.
Guy 1 smiles at you from the counter. You smile back. The ball is in his court now, since you can't approach the counter for privacy reasons (pharmacies don't allow that, unless a 2nd attendant opens a space), and you can't very well start a conversation from behind him.

I know. Pharmacies require customers to maintain a certain distance from the desk while they're waiting to be served. To give the customer at the counter privacy. It's a requirement. They don't want you overhearing what other customers' personal medical issues are and what meds they're taking, etc.

Oh I see what you're saying. This was actually at the main cash register; I know my OP was confusing because I said local pharmacy, but it was at a chain drug store. Sorry about that.
Seems like an awful lot of people on this forum need to get over junior high.
