Get the Hint!

Yesterday I had iftar with Rose at Putrajaya Marriot. Since we have finished our meals and have loads of gossips to share, we decided to hang out at the lobby.

As we were chatting, suddenly one makcik came and smiled at us. She asked us if we could spare a bit of our time and started yakking about the products that she is selling. I think between the both of us, we nicely declined 10 times by saying we were not interested but she still went on and on and on. Finally, we just had to get up and leave just so she would shut up! Ish!

With due respect to people doing direct selling, we know that your motto is never to give up. But I think you should draw the line and know the art of body language. When people roll their eyes, looked away, do not show interest and decline 10 TIMES, you really should move on.

Besides, despite being told 10 TIMES and the numerous expressions and body language, the fact that you interrupted our conversation and kept yakking away was just plain rude!!
