A Lesson in Dressing Room Etiquette

Have you ever wondered how to respond when the sales woman asks you: "How did you make out?" I have to admit, I never quite know how to answer this question. Sometimes, I opt for the non-answer, and simply hand the clothes back to the sales. (These are in my more frustrated/leave the store in a huff times, and are more of an exception than a rule). Or, there's the one-word answer- "yes" or "no," but what does this exactly mean. Yes, I liked the merchandise? No, I thought all of it was crap? It's a bit of a tough call, I'd have to say. And then I heard the perfect response.

It happened the other day. I was maxin' and relaxin' on a black leather chair outside the dressing rooms, waiting for a certain pink-coated horstmann (who gave me a little scare- though what doesn't make me jump?- as I was browsing through the sale racks). That's when I heard it. "I think I'll pass, thank you." It wasn't a "yes" or "no" or even the beloved non-answer. I'd have to admit; I was a bit impressed. Good work tigre!
