When I was in JB not very long time ago, I had nothing better to do than to go to Dorothy Perkins to waste some time & also to distress myself by doing the ‘perasan kaya’ kinda window shopping routine. Inside AEON Tebrau City, like any other window shopping routine I pretended to admire the merchandise just to appease the not so helpful salesgirl watching my every move. I fell in love with a DP’s boots. But at RM249, it's pretty clear that the relationship could never work. ....
As I walked away, I was approached by a salesgirl dressed in a black shirt and pants. She was... a mysterious one with brown eyes and careless hair. She was... fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care. But I then thought she might just use me for her career advancement. No, I did not believe a RM499 Polo Ralph Lauren handbag is a "steal." I told her-- maybe I'm not ready to be committed to that bag after only knowing it for five minutes. I've only just started shopping and there are so many other things to try on. And besides, the Fendi bag that I got from e-bay had just arrived. Please leave me be Miss Sales Representative, this relationship of us could never work.
So as I leave empty handed, I remember why I hate going to the mall. But by the following weekend, I forgotten all about my 'bad experience' and went right back to shopping malls again.
Ah, the perasan kaya kinda window shopping. I like that.
ReplyDeleteyeah don't you just hate it when the sales person is watching your every move.. i remember back in 1998 after SPM when i worked as a sales dude at a departmental store in bukit bintang... even though we were ask to do just that.. aku buat tak reti jer biler customer datang.. diorang nak mintak tolong pandai ler diorang panggil.. hahaha... dapat jugak gaji.. dapat jugak buat sales.. huhuhuhu
