Mister M Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 How would you feel to be asked to dance for a job working at Curry's electrical store? Now fair enough if you were going for a job as a GoGo dancer, lap dancer etc, understandable. But is this a humiliation to far? http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/man-humiliated-by-dance-interview-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daid Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 How would I feel? Like a fish out of water, my 'moves' are laughable but aside from that Daft Punk are awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as a customer a HATE pushy salespeople in shops. I went in a Currys a few years ago and was about to purchase an item but the saleswoman tried pushing an extended warranty so hard even after I'd declined this twice that I changed my mind and bought the item elsewhere. I also decided never to buy anything in Currys again. The description above = pushy to me and I know I'm not the only person that can't stand pushy salespeople!

A good sales person will gain more custom than they loose, so whilst I agree with you 100% about pushy sale people, many people will succumb to their sales pitch and buy.
