when i worked at best buy...
i was told specifically that we had to make contact with everyone in the store because it had been scientifically proven that pointing out to the customer that a) you know they exist and b) you know they're in your store will keep at least the timid ones from shoplifting. as someone who hates talking to strangers, the only resource i had for the afore-mentioned making contact was to hide behind a "can i help you find something?" for fuck's sake, what else was i going to say? "lovely breasts you have there, can i fondle you?"
