I don’t set out to be rude. I try to just ignore the kiosk people who line the center of the mall. I look at my shoes. I try to ignore the fact that people are telling me my fingernails are in dire need of help or that people are clipping hairpieces onto my head. Believe me, that’s hard to ignore.
The thing is these people don’t understand my polite brush off. They think it’s interest because I’m not actually yelling at them like everyone else. I usually like to make eye contact & smile at people, but the mall completely prohibts that unless you want to walk away with $400 worth of hair accessories or perfume that smells like dog’s breath. I just want to go to the store of my choosing & then eat Chinese food in a court like atmosphere. Is that really asking so much? Instead, I feel like I’ve just run through a gauntlet. I understand that they probably work on commission but they are single handily killing my shopping experience & just plain kindness. Does anyone know a way around this? How do you handle kiosk people?
