I bet his back was itching like hell.
Exactly. I used to work retail and I had a specific amount I was supposed to sell each day. This doesn't condone the annoying salesman's behavior though, and I probably would have done the same thing Gilda did. There is no need to be pushy and overbearing like that, and can obviously backfire
