# I get annoyed when
staff ask if they can help, when they clearly can't.

Like in Dixons/Currys/whatever it's called this week.

'Do you sell multiregion DVD recorders?'
Assistant proceeds to scan the cards on the shelf.
I slap my forehead and leave

# Urgh, this
Why would I need you to help me with something I'm just as capable of doing, and will have done before you came over, probably much more carefully than you are.

But then, I have a real thing about being harrassed in shops, if I want help I'll come to you. I can deal with quick 'need any help?' or 'you okay there?' if it's someone who CAN help, that's just polite/professional, but don't follow me around or keep talking if I clearly tell you I'm fine!

# Oh, god - this!
Assistant: "Hi there, can I help at all?"

Me: " ... "

Me: "I doubt it."
