Shop assistants who clings to customers...
-
Oh yes, encounter such assistants too. Rearrange everything on the rack, or the shoes when you touch them. Very rude and irritating. That's why I prefer to go to large dept stores to shop nowadays. But some large stores also have irritating assistants. Was at carrefour yesterday, looking around for an oven and this extremely irritating sales assistant was clinging on to me and invading my personal space. Din get to buy anything in the end. :mad:

They are too bored, and just doing what they are supposed to do - without feeling what the customer might feel. I almost always turn around and let them know I will tell them when I need help - politely.
Retail staff in Singapore still has a long way to go in improving service. These days, I encounter many Philippines assistants to be helpful and friendly, even over the phone and at Mcdonald's. Like what some in this forum says, Singaporeans are more used to being served than to serve (can imagine if they grow up in family with maids though :roll:) It's just the way it goes, not that Singaporeans can do without maids, right? -
maybe they "see you no up", think you not their targeted customer?
maybe they are "keeping an eye on you" and have the intention to "chase" you away? -

I scared of those local assistants at Best Denki.. ..
Always push their desired brand and some don't even know what they are selling.. Worse when they won't leave you alone to browse... :stupid: -
Was shopping for a washing machine and decided on one that is going for $375. A salesman insisted that I should get 1 with the 3 ticked water-saving label that cost $1,7xx. Hence, I asked him how many years must I used the machine to save $1,300 of water bill. Sometime I wonder why all the things that suppose to save the world come with a super heavy price tag.

He gets more commission if you buy the more expensive one. -
