I AGREE...100%

A little conversation can go a long way...but then there is always that sales person who is a grump from the word go....
ignore her and get on with your purchase.

I do try to watch for the happier cutter when I approach the counter..
sometimes I'm lucky and then there are the other times..

need I say more?
