A post by Dr. Amy Psy.D. @dramypsyd@ohai.social saying: So I had to stop by Best Buy and the sales guy was going really hard trying to get me to sign up for the credit card. Like I said I didn’t want it and he was like “does YOUR card get you 15% off I don’t think so” and I was like buddy I know they make you push it but please stop and he was like actually they don’t, I just really like the Best Buy credit card. And then he wouldn’t tear my receipt off because he said the chemicals would take away his testosterone. Anyway this is why I shop online.
I have to be in an unusually confrontational mood to pull shit like this, but three or four times now when I've been bombarded by sales floor hawks, I motioned my hand at them like a Jedi mind trick and said "Adblock." mid-sentence in their pitch.
No eye contact, never stopped walking. So far it's got a 100% success rate in stopping the pitch instantly.
Yo Ive got to try this, I usually just start adhd thought paralysis and awkward my way through it 😭
