Has anyone on here ever NOT had someone ask them for help at a store/parking lot or mistake them for an employee?

I'd bet that this happens to virtually all normal people who do their own shopping.

/sarcasm off
I can't figure out what the witches problem is.

I don't work retail, never have worked retail but I suppose I look and dress the part because I am often asked a question or to get something off the top shelf. I always do it with a smile.

Barack Obama, and Eric holder have been consulting with and coordinating with Al Sharpton on a regular basis, lately they have been tied at the hip to each other.

In other words, you have no examples. As I thought. Amazing that whenever someone asks a simple question, no one can answer it because they're usually exagerrating or lying.

It's shameful that the Obamas have ever gotten into the White House. They are ridiculous liars with no class.

I was asked once to get something off a high shelf for a short old lady. She must have been an anti-Semite.

Seems quite odd that every word the OBAMAS speak is digested and then torn apart, i ask as to why anyone would think that they would sit around and tell lies.

Seems that some are to stupid and ate up by hate to ever see the truth.
You don't think a first lady should have any skills? Well that explains a lot...a lot.

Yep, some on the left hate all things they do not agree with....sad world isn't it?

I have to laugh at this forum. Just yesterday I mistook this tiny little British woman for a Safeway clerk. At least she laughed and said it happens all the time since her volunteer smock is the same color as some of the staff at the store. I guess I am a bigot pftttttttt.

He told her … he believed that her father, the president, would be shocked if he heard what she had just said to her friends. Chelsea’s response? ‘I don’t think so. That’s what my parents call you’ ” (Unlimited Access, p. 90).



“If you want to remain on this detail, get your f*cking ass over here and grab those bags.”
Hillary gave this order to a Secret Service agent who wanted to keep his hands free in case of an incident (as he was trained and supposed to do) and who, therefore, was hesitant to carry her bags. According to countless witnesses over many years, this kind of demanding and demeaning behavior was and still is common for Hillary Rodham Clinton. In fact, Chris Mathews—a left-leaning news commentator who is often an apologist for Democrats—said years later that he had seen Senator Hillary Clinton using a Secret Service agent to carry her bags on the Washington to New York shuttle. “Who in the Senate gets a sherpa to carry their bags for them? Who pays the airfare for this guy? Who pays for his life-style? Who pays his salary to walk around carrying her bags? This looks pretty regal”(Hardball, 08/01, quoted on Newsmax.com, 07/17/01).
I read his book. Never disputed any of it. The Clintons are not what they seem, or maybe they are and that is the problem.
