I hate when they obviously see you and then just ignore you.

I know what you mean.
“How can I help you?” indicates that they kinda want to help you out.
“Can I help you?” indicates that you’re in their face and should leave NOW.
*wink*

I agree.  Customer service has really gone down the shitter in the past few years.  It’s pretty sad when I’m happy with my service at a restaraunt just because she refilled my drink once.

I love my barber-ette type person. I found her a couple of years ago and she spoils the hell out of me. Why, I’m not sure.

Well at least you got a good haircut.

I’m still trying to find a salon down here. My brother owns a salon in T.O. and I’m actually quite spoiled...so now I tend to let my hair go to shit before I get it cut.
Afraid of ‘em making me look like a stuck in the 80’s country gal. EEEKS! Believe me, it’s happened and I was not impressed.

And yes I agree. How can I help you sounds much nicer than Can I help you.

That sucks, but I’m glad that you came out of there with luscious locks!

People with attitudes like hers are taking jobs away from people who should have them.

I’m glad you got a nice cut though!  I was going to a lady I loved, and all of a sudden the business is locked up and no one answers the phones!  I am now forced to wear a headband.  I’ve got a month of root showing! I look scary!

That reminds me of an old MAD Magazine chestnut, “Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions”.

Whenever I’m in a restaurant with my wife, and the idiot hostess looks up and says “Two?” I always want to say “No, one.  My wife is going to sit on my shoulders as we eat.” or “Four, please.  We like to play musical chairs during dinner.”

I like to answer the “can I help you” question like this. “Can I help you?”, Me: “I don’t know, can you?”

The profound look of “huh” is priceless.
