New Service With a Smile

:

I went in to an expensive store where the staff has always been very snotty to me. I have a 2 month old baby, and haven't been paying much attention to my clothes. I was wearing old chord pants and a baggy sweatshirt left over from college and did not look hip or fashionable in any capacity. I was looking around, and noticed that this time the staff were falling all over themselves to try to sell me clothes. They were bringing me different outfits they thought I might like, complementing me, and making small talk. I felt like a celebrity, even though I looked like a ragamuffin. I did buy something small, my first purchase at this overpriced venue.
