Why the Salesperson Hates You

» You don’t acknowledge me when I say hello. Twice.

» You walk in talking on your cell phone and act put out when I ask how I may help you.

» You let your small children run wild while you’re trying on clothes.

» You rush in five minutes before closing and (a) have a return, (b) insist on trying on every dress in the store because your company/engagement/bachelorette party is tomorrow, and/or (c) pull out all the items I just carefully arranged—all the while telling me you know the store is closing and will “only be a minute.”

» Contrary to popular fiction, you’re not always right.
