Salespeople

I’ve had it with sales people. What is it about them that means that they can’t leave me alone to make a decision? Clothing stores, bookstores, furniture stores… A polite “can I help you?” is great! Even a couple of “that looks great on you”-style comments are nice to get. But the constant pressure to buy is simply over the top - I end up leaving the store without purchasing and going somehwere else where the staff aren’t so aggressive. I could perhaps understand the attention if I looked like I was going to steal something, but that just simply isn’t the case.

Am I alone in this?.

    That would be a little thing called “commission”; and if they aren’t on commission, they have sales quotas or goals.

    Ironic, as the pushier they are the more likely they are to *lose* a sale!

    Oh successful sales person, they name is ’subtlety’.
