Yesterday the guys at the bike left me alone in the shop while they tended to other things outside the shop. And I sat there like a complete idiot Cheesy

Did they just left? Were they talking to you or you had the phantom shop syndrome (you are there but nobody seemed to see you)?

The bike shop I used to go to treated me like I wasn't there. Check, one time they talked me out of the more expensive bike I wanted to buy. But the new bike shop, will ask me if I would hold down the fort. But that's besides the point😬

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.

I would have had to climb on the display counter. I was listening to the construction happening next door on the Red Barrel Brewery, wondering how soon I would be alble to grab a pint there  Cool

Or how about this.....your in the bike shop shopping for a new ride,....and you realize the sales person has no idea how the product in the store or about the industry in general. This happened to me.....was kinda shocked but not at the same time.
