Excerpt from I Like You:
Shop Talk
* Don't buy fish on Sunday.
* If you do not work 9 to 5, go shopping 9 to 5. The Same
applies to laundry, be considerate.
* When ordering in a deli, announce loudly how many items
you'll be ordering so customers behind you know what to expect
and won't be irritated. The same applies to chocolate shops.
* Government checks are issued on the 1st and the 15th,
which means crowds of families on these dates. Keep that
in mind.
* Don't shop from someone else's food cart.
* Notice in local health food stores how unhealthy the
people tend to look.
* And notice in heliolithic stores that when you throw out
"thanks" they hear that and respond sincerely, so if you say
"thank you," mean it.
* Cashiers will notice patterns like ice cream at midnight three
days in a row. The same true for liquor. Rotate your stores.
* If you genuinely see something you can compliment your
cashier on, do it. It'll make their day. Conversely, if you
want to destroy their day, ask to see the manager.
* Remember, grocery store butchers always tuck the fat.
