Theres this cute delivery guy who comes to our office every day. I usually open the door for him and hes always been courteous and polite. The other week, I happen to bump into him at the elevator and out of the blue he flirts/hits on me. He goes - "You should come along while I finish up my pickups." This was during the working hour. Totally caught me by surprise. I thought he was kidding around so I just said - "no way, I'm going home soon". I could kick myself, I should've responded better.

Ever since that day hes been subtly flirting. Yesterday he was training someone and he goes to him while I'm standing there - "Her day doesn't start until she sees me". I replied with "Yep, thats right". Then I teased him that he screwed up a delivery the day before.

Is he interested in me? Or is he just flirting? Should I be brave and suggest going out one day? I don't want to ask him to go out and make a fool of myself if hes just flirting for fun. How do I show him I'm interested?

You can't tell but if you're interested, the only way to find out is show more interest. See if you can find opportunities to flirt with him alone w/o other people around. You could ask if he has a gf. You could ask him to go out for coffee.

I would assume he is just flirting. If you wanted to see how...the next time he says those things to you, hit him back with "I see...but you would never put your money where your mouth is, would you?" do it flirtatiously and see what he says.
