I Have Enough Friends, Thanks!
I can't stand it when salesgirls try to be your friend. Yesterday, while I was out running errands, I stopped into a couple stores to buy a few new clothes. I went into this one place, where I swear, corporate must send these girls off to a seminar on 'How to Be Your Customer's Friend'. One called me 'sweetheart'. I felt like telling her, "HONEY, I'm old enough to be your big sister!" The other one walked around calling me 'girl'. Really, how demeaning is that? "Girl, that will look great on you!" "Girl, you want me to put that bag behind the counter while you shop?" NO! I want you to stop calling me girl! And, if I didn't want to hold my bag, I would have taken it to the car. It's not really THAT long of a walk! Mental note: never return to that store!

Here's one for you...My friend was shopping for a friend at Lerners New York. The sales girl said, "Dear, our plus-sized clothes are at the store next door. It's called Lane Bryant. You should look there" Seriously! And she wasn't even that overweight!!!
