Gee Jen, how awful. I’m glad you gave him a bit of educating on the matter.

Jessica, it is annoying. I feel like hanging a sign around my neck that reads “I’ve already been asked the question…please don’t ask it again.”

Amy, I wonder if the kiosk guys actually target being by lingerie shops to cheer them up over the rejection they must face regularly.

Catching up on your musing today.
I had a horrible incident with a kiosk “salesman” this weekend. As I was looking at something else he walked from his booth (I think there should be a leash or something) and approached my son in his stroller, he grabbed his hand and handed him a “magic marker” (something he was selling I didn’t stick around to find out why it was magic) Guess what my 9 month old did with it? Wiped it down his shirt and then put it in his mouth all in about 5 seconds. OH I YELLED and YELLED at that man. “WHY in the world would you do that” I asked. “Just wanted to share my product with the kids, its washable!” was his answer. WHAT AN IDIOT!

I also dislike the fact that when I go tot he mall, some stranger pops out of the middle of the mall and says “can I ask you a question?” I said “no”.

I don’t make it a habit of talking to stangers particularly if my DD is with me. I kow that he has a job to do, but I just don’t like it.

That is too coincedental. I too avert my eyes to the lingerie shop in our mall when passing the phone co. kiosk!
