I worked at a Radio Shack (a company owned store) for a few years, and the pressure to sell people expensive items, whether or not they needed them, was intense.
And that is exactly why I stopped going to Radio Shack a long time ago. Every time I go in there, I feel like lunch for the sharks. Same goes for Circuit City and Best Buy (although Best Buy seems to have dropped that mostly). I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way. I'm glad to see that this high-pressure sales policy has backfired so badly. I hope these companies at some point figure it out and start encouraging their employees to behave like decent human beings, not sharks.
