How much money do you need to drop before LBS employees start indulging you and treating you like a fellow cyclist with a wallet instead of just a walking wallet? Let alone licking your ass.
I want to like them, to buy things there instead of online, but also to have a minimum of polite conversation about the parts I'm buying, the weather for riding or whatever, and it is very difficult, very frustrating and very rude. Even whores hide their interest in your money better. And it's not just one store, all I've gone to felt like that, no matter if you're buying a 5€ piece or a 500€ one, if there's people behind you or not, if they're the owner, a wage cuck or you've been going there for years. Even employees I know from other places turn into soulless robots in the shop. Not even a funeral, it is like going to a vending machine. All I'm asking is for 30 fucking seconds of polite courtesy talk.
I've wagecucked 12 hours at times, like almost everyone fucking else on the planet, in places much more uncomfortable and miserable than a bike shop at that, and probably for less money, and it almost never ruined my ability to show interest and have a couple of seconds of inconsequential chitchat with co-workers, clients or whoever, in fact the more tedious the work was the more welcome it was. Even if I am exaggerating because I am a bit pissed right now, they should be sucking my cock for shopping there instead of paying less to have shit delivered at my doorsteps, I am entitled to that much a whole lot more than they are to my hard-earned money. Even online retailers sometimes put a little candy in the package.
