Can't I Just Buy the CD?
I was in Borders today to buy the new Morrissey CD. As I approached the counter I was asked:
1) Did you find everything alright? Yes.
2) Would you like to sign up for our on-line newsletter? No.
3) Would you like to join our Readers reward Club? No.
4) It's free. No.
5) Can I get your home phone number? No.
What the hell? Is this 20 questions? What happened to plopping down your merchandise before a sullen disaffected employee who would ring it up and let you leave in peace? Yes, I would love to save 15% on today's purchase but no, I do not want your 30% interest store credit card. Jesus, if you want to steal my identity, just dig throught my garbage like other identity thieves. Maybe I should just hand over a urine sample at the beginning of each transaction and tell them that all the answers to their questions are in there.

YES about borders. What's with that? The sales guy had that frequent blahbedeblah club card in my hand before I knew what hit me. (Oh and new Morrissey CD? Awesome.)
