I went back the next day and made my purchase without incident and without having to see or hear Brooks. Suzie: I don't think he was a relative. Just a stuper that somehow slipped in the back door. Jennifer: That is so true about harlots and the makeovers. I'm with you--I can make myself over quite well without Chanel or anyone else's help, thank you very much! dawn: Smart policy. The fewer battles the better! Julianne: Thanks! It worked every time...until a few days ago. I'm not planning on abandoning my methods; I think Brooks was a lone stuper. Reilly:

In this case I agree... "It’s best to leave stupidity behind where you found it, and move on to better things."

This reminds me of when the Chanel cosmetics counter at Belk holds their "free facial" events featuring world-renowned makeup "artists" who can't wait to wield trowels full of garish cosmetics, making every woman who has signed up for a "makeover" look like a brazen harlot. I "took the cure" when they started making you buy a $50 gift card from the store before they'd sign you up for the "free" makeover. No matter how hard I argued about how little sense that made, the girl behind the counter just stared at me, Zombie-like. I mean, I could spend my $50 anywhere in the store; right? Right. So HOW does it help Chanel for me to buy a $50 gift card that I can spend anywhere in Belk before they'll sign me up for a FREE makeover? But that's okay ... I don't need a makeover anyway ...

I am sure Brooks is the only one of the stuper kind in Nordstrom's. Maybe he is related to a member of the family. I'm sure there is a logical explanation for such an idiot working at Nordstrom's because most of the time the employees are the best! Don’t be discouraged.

I'm sure this was an isolated incident since Nordstrom is known for it's excellent customer relations. Sounds like the only insurgent was Brooks the stuper.
