No, they don’t....though some take that perspective at times.
I went shopping for an anniversary gift a few years ago, and walked into the jewelry store wearing jeans and a T-shirt. I asked to look at a particular pair of earrings, and the man behind the counter said “But those are expensive”. I asked him if he thought I couldn’t afford it, as the manager of the store walked up and said “Hello, good to see you again”.
The manager knew I was the same guy (an attorney and repeat customer) in jeans and T-shirt as I was when I had come in wearing a suit, but the new employee didn’t see me as a serious customer because I wasn’t well dressed at the time.
