Megan, I think you should complain. It may be that aggressive first guy shouldn't have gotten the sale at all, but second guy didn't want to fight in front of the customers. Maybe you could get the commission reversed. I really dislike salespeople like that.
When we went to buy our bed, I went in alone because the babies were fussy. Big event, everyone on commission. No salesperson talked to me at all. I found the bed I wanted, went back out to the car and got Greg and the babies, walked back in, instantaneous salesperson magnet. A woman alone is obviously not buying furniture? I guess.
You'd think that a woman alone would be in obvious need of a bed. Woman with babies? What's she need a bed for. Work's already done.

It wouldn't surprise me if this is the thinking. In fact, today my mother went out and looked at TVs and DVD/VCRs. She came home, told my father what she liked and he went out and bought it. (It's the first new TV they have bought in 27 years). Strange.
Feh, like a woman with three kids (two of them babies) and a husband
gets
any sleep. Ever.
I have had that same problem with salesmen. I have not bought things form stores just because I couldn't get any sales help. I
never
want sales help, so when I want it and they're not pestering me, I get pretty cranky.
Elena, too close to the truth. I got 3 hours last night. Then today I couldn't walk up the stairs and Greg had to come home from work and take care of them. Right now is the longest I've sat up in 2 days.
Poor, sore Deena... You have essential oils, don't you? Does lavander bother you? Rub some on your joints and your temple if it doesn't. If nothing else, it will help relax you.
Megan, Do you use the place at the Square for your alterations? Are they okay? I bought a pair of pants yesterday that are about six inches too long and are cuffed. I could do them myself, but it may be months before I get around to doing it...
Lavender does bother me if it's very strong, but this evening is better. We're about to go snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie, I think.
It's good to see you back, Elena.
This is a nice thread. Thanks for chatting with me this evening, everyone.
