Yes, a lot of people make it a habit to lie to avoid the possibility of confrontation. That’s why I added an option for those that are able to stand up for themselves.
At a store? I have never met an employee like that. How would that even work? Sure, they might try to make some small talk because it helps sell things or because they are bored, but “I’m good / just looking, thanks” is all I’ve ever needed to get them to get the hint.
Or just tell them to mind their own fucking business instead of lying.
Sure.
I have however learnt that a lot of people don’t like to do that.
