Rarely need to get that far... I give them one polite warning and
attempt to keep it humorous, but don't waste time with
those too stupid or sleazy to take a very broad hint.
Oddly enough though, I've been lucky enough to meet several
very good salesmen. Some were new, some had been at the
same dealership for over 10 years. However I may be strange
in that I am aware that salesmen also need to eat, and I'd
like to see the dealer around when the damn thing breaks, or even
better be there when I buy another car, soI tend not to shop at
Walmart a lot.
