抵...唔抵?

 尋日，我終於享受到自由行的光輝：短期入住連接大型商場嘅酒店，為着獨自去偷Shop到最後一秒。

嗨，最後一秒前，點都要揀支酒慶吓功。
如是去到超級城市。

「呀，小姐，你想搵咩酒呀？呢幾支都做緊promotion，好抵飲㗎。」

10年前，我會黑面即走。但而家係10年後，我不安哋維持禮貌的微笑。

個中年男promoter嘗試介紹幾隻特價紅酒。尚算有啲general knowledge。。。

我：「你邊間行㗎？」
佢一呆：「我in house㗎。」
我出奇：「咁我買promoted items 同買正價酒會對你收入會有影響？」
佢：「講無就呃你嘅...」

我爭啲想講：「你咁答，我灰鳩咗lor。」

點講呢？我其實真係唔撚明佢哋點做sales training。賣酒一向難，淨係面對拉丁字母同發音已經煩死人。（都仲未講香港推唔郁德國酒係因為無人識讀）

但，客去城市超級，係因為方便？都明知貴，都明知去買嘢類似獵奇，係比多啲都唔介意先去。

係咩sales strategy 導致啲promoter一開口就去推介抵飲？

當榴槤要賣到過＄500／5粒，西瓜要$800一個，我為咩要聽人同我講支st Emilion grand cru 平咗＄70？

I honestly don't fucking care because 有免費泊車我已經平咗$70。

I want 好味。

因為平$70蚊買碌返去，可能面對批評；同比多＄170確保有人飲到眉笑顏開，係兩件事。

而唔知點解，當我睇啲唔係promoted 嘅酒時，在場嘅5/6個promoter/sales，係完全等緊個機會叫我轉軚買promoted items。

我一啲實際嘅資料都得唔到。
但到買佢支口中極優質嘅ST Emilion Grand Cru，佢都唔會提要Breath幾耐。

有時，我唔知我係唔係好黐線。

「That is a fantastic choice, madam. I am sure it will impress. 」

「The bottle you have in your hand was among the top choices to pair with Italian beef tongue, for which, if you haven't tried out already, could be found in our meat aisle. We are too the exclusive retailer of it.」

「This Chablis was stress tested by our Taste Director and went through a pairing with over 15 kinds of oyster, making it the best performed white wine for oyster pairing. Details of the tasting can be found in your app, there is also a a discount coupon when oysters are purchased with this wine.」

FUCK.

Human: are you aware you are contributing to the worse of humanity because the above dialog is made possible only in alternate universe??

我幫襯係因為我Hea咗成半粒鐘，都見唔到有人買酒。

PS(返到去又有人以為大小姐鍾意高消費如是亂Fing先算日常囉。淨係呢個景觀我已經好唔撚抵囉)
