Merry Christmas!
Today is Christmas Eve, and shops and restaurants are the most crowded of all year.
I walked around a department store on Sunday.
I saw many men there. Usually, 90% of visitors to the makeup floor are women, but at this time of the year, men come with women.
I enjoyed observing them shopping.
Because I always had a hard time when I was waiting in line, I wanted to know how men behaved! People watching is very interesting!
I have products in mind when I am at shop.
I get an order and go and buy it there, So my visit could be done in less than one minute.
When I see customers waiting in line, I go to another shop to spend time. But when I have only one shop to visit, I will wait there.
That waiting time gives me ………… total agony.
I have nothing to do but to take a picture. It is done in less than one minute so I work on iPhone or pretend to do so…
So I was curious about how men wait.
Some men are sitting next to their partners. Some are waiting outside a makeup counter.
But what do shop employees think of the couple ?
I asked this question to two employees.
One shop person did not like it. They are just flirting and not buying. Yes, it is one way to look at….
The other person loves it. It is likely that men pay and that women buy it more often than usual. That employee tries to talk to a man to keep him involved. More conversations, more fun, and they will buy. Clever.
This reminds me of one joke ( or true).
Man is a bank ATM to get money from. A popular joke in Japan.
Thank you for reading!
