Second day on vacation and while I am thoroughly enjoying
the tropics here are some observations.
There is no escaping shopping when you are in an American city. Fifth Avenue is not just located in NYC, it's
in San Francisco, Seattle, Dallas, Miami & Honolulu - to name a few of the
cities that I've personally witnessed the moves!
There are also some observations about people living in
paradise like conditions - they appear
to be very laid back and happy. Life has a very different pace when lived in
perfect surroundings. Even though people
may be living on the economic edge as they likely are when they exist by
working on a marketing booth they seem to simply be happy, welcoming and very polite.
They have, in general, a very customer friendly attitude which is lacking in
Canada. I write this despite having an
incident at the market that was quite disturbing. I almost made the sales person cry. She kept asking me how much I would offer and
I was adamant that $25 was it. She kept
trying to push the price higher and I said no, that's okay so finally she
wrapped it up and asked for The $25 but when I have her the money she wanted
tax money and I said no, that 'snot the deal, it was $25 or we can cancel the
deal But tax, tax, tax and I said no,
no, no. Finally I gave her an extra dollar and she said go, go, go. And I still think I paid too much.
Its easier to shop at Macy's.
