Do you have annoying people in your stores?

I've never seen this when I was younger now there are pushy sales people in grocery stores and home depot that keep asking if I want to sign up for a card. If you say No, they will keep following you around.
Now even some cashiers are doing it,
So the cashier insisted I will get 40% of my shopping if I sign up for the card she offered thats Walmart

Nobody has ever followed me around that way.

They do all ask about signing up for a card, because they have been instructed to do so.

In fact, when my daughter was in high school, she had a retail part-time job. At her first evaluation by her manager, the only thing the manager said was " You are doing very well. You've opened a lot of new accounts." Not a word about how she was selling merchandise or relating to customers.

So, I would not blame the sales people, who are just working for minimum wage and doing what they are told to do. I would blame management, who make this a policy.

@DrWatson no, these are not high school students here it's fully grown adults they try to get to open an account by being pushy
