"I too can't handle being followed around, "oh this would suit you", yep, no it won't thanks I'll just look. "how about this? " ..."
That brings up my hackles quickly, but it's a cultural remnant, that whole behavior.
Here's Bullocks Wilshire, back then-
It was a usual place, I ate in the tea room at a few times, just ordinary lunches with friends, after I was out of university and working. I don't remember buying anything besides lunch there. I had liked the Westwood Bullocks, which I wandered through when broke on the way to the bus, only bus coins at the ready, back in university days (free then).
