That is an anus way to behave (or... at least an anus way to come across!) but has not happened to me there though. Did you not shower or shave for three days before going there??? (-: Anyway, it's not as if GC have firearms in the middle area of the shop, they're all behind glass or on the wall behind the counter. I feel the same about H&F and prefer GC or Elios. I get antsy in shops where salespeople are so clearly on commission that they stick to you and follow you round like a dog, it's not as if I come in every time with a ready shopping list.
The salesperson who gets it right is the one who makes you feel welcome in the shop in the first place, everything good flows from that start. I much prefer "good afternoon" or "welcome" as a first greeting, but most launch straight into "how may I help you?"
