Then read the above again, carefully. I have over 45 years of dealing
with the public, selling vegetables in retail. A careful observer will
learn something about human nature in that time.
Annoying people will get you nowhere. Telemarketers that call me on the
phone annoy me, and they don't get my business. Politicians that annoy
me don't get my vote. Businesses that flood TV with annoying ads don't
get my business.
BTW, thanks for proving my point. My post annoyed you, so you dismiss me.
