One must pass through SM Department store’s cosmetic section on the ground floor to get to the San Miguel side’s entrance of the mall.
There were about a dozen young men wearing all black and holding perfume bottles. While you walk, sasabayan ka nila.
Even if you tell them “no, or no thank you”, they don’t stop, sasabyan ka pa rin nila and they would spray your arm, or shoulder or hand. Even if you have already told them “NO”.

As I was passing thru the perfume concessionaire’s display areas, I saw a woman walking and avoiding the perfume guy. She said no twice and also used her left hand to signal “No”. My blood boiled when I saw the perfume guy sprayed the woman with the perfume. They were one meter away from me and I was facing them. the woman walked faster. I stopped walking.

When the perfume boys saw me, they approached me, kala siguro bibili ako, including this particular boy.
I scolded him.
Me———–” Bakit mo sya ini-sprayan? di ba sinabi na nya na NO, nag no na sya bakit kailangan mong gawin yun?”
Kunut-kunot talaga ang noo ko.
Perfume Boy—– “Mam hindi naman sa mukha, sa side lang….”
Me————– Sinabi nya No ilang beses, bakit mo pa itinuloy, hinabol mo pa ng spray. Hindi ka nakakatuwa.
that is so rude, bastos ka. Kahit sa likod, sa braso, kahit saan pag-ayaw ng customer, tigilan mo!”
Perfume Boy—— Sorry po.

Why was I so mad? Because it happened to me before. I was passing thru the area, one of them walked with me, I said NO 3 X and still, he sprayed the perfume over my right shoulder. Tinabig ko yung bottle pero tapos na he was able to spray and it hit a portion of my neck. I was fuming mad, I stopped walking and wanted to hit his face but I just controlled myself and took a deep breath. I just told him “di ba sinabi kong ayaw ko?” Then I left but I was really furious.

There are certain scents that could trigger a very bad reaction, within minutes, I could suffer from severe migraine attack that could debilitate me. In ten minutes I could be down on the floor. I also get ashtma attack, although rarely, it has happened two times. And it doesn’t matter if the customer is allergic or not, the mere fact that I said no, they should back-off. It’s not funny.

I intend to go back to Megamall tomorrow or later, if I could find some extra time. I will talk to their manager and complain. Next time matyempuhan na naman nila ako at ulitin nila yun, sapak talaga aabutin nila sa akin. I will give them a one and two. Pacquiao abutin nila. Tapos ma-you-you tube ako, kontrabida. so I’ll make sure, knock out para hindi naman nakaka hiya. Maka pag practice nga.

  1. oh my, makukulit tlga sila ms. annie. I remember we went to sari sari store naman tapos ung salesman na bading pilit sya ng pilit sa akin mag try ng damit kasi ung husband ko nagsusukat at meron syang nkitang damit na nka sale na maganda. kapipilit nya nag try din ako while waiting but no intention to buy anything at all. after trying i told the staff hindi ko type kasi hindi bagay sa akin, after few seconds ko tumalikod i heard the bading saying hmmmpp wlang pera, as in ung dugo ko kumulo to the max at hinarap ko ung bakla. sinabihan ko na wala akong pera eh that time meron akong less than 100k na hawak kasi katatapos lang nmin mangoleksyon ng bayad sa mga items namin na tinda sa office galit na galit ako gusto kong isampal ung pera sa mukha nung bading. Pinatawag ng husband ko ung manager at ang excuse nung bading hindi naman daw ako ung sinabihan nya kundi ung 1 buyer kaya lalong nag init ung ulo ko meaning lahat ginaganun nya pag di bumili. Nilait lait ko talaga ung bading ms. annie gusto ngang sapaking ng husband ko ksi bastos sya. Ako pa naman ung tipo ng tao pag d ako bibili d ko gagalawin items ksi mapapagod lag sila mag tupi ng damit at pag nag sukat ako at ntagalan ako kahit ayaw ko bumibili na lng din ako kasi sayang ung pagod nung salestaff. Even dito po sa dubai pag nag sukat ako d ako bumili tinitiklop ko ulit pra konting ayos na lng gagawin ksi iniisip ko ilan hours silang nkatayo parang kawawa tapos hirap pa sila sa ibang lahi at halukay ube ung mga un pag tumingin ng damit tapos d bibili. Kasi ako hindo ko po kayang mag work ng nka tayo khit pa 3 oras pa yan eh ung 8hrs pa kya.
