Although most of us have become accustomed to occasionally being approached by Solicitors when entering or leaving a store (Girl Scouts, charities, etc.), I find it particularly objectionable when I'm bothered after I've entered the store, and am in the process of shopping.I've also noticed other Shopper's reactions to the DirectTV sales people interrupting them, and it's never been positive.

It would be a different matter if they were stationed within a designated area, and shoppers that are interested may go to them.

However, this practice of the Sales People roaming about the store, and bothering shoppers has gone too far.This is a deal-breaker, and they have officially lost my business. 30ab3d1

If you let that get to you and make you mad you must have alot of problems. They are just doing their jobs. That's why they are there. An this is not menards fault. They have nothing to do with the direct tv sales people in their store . You need to talk to driect tv about that an not menards.

So is the issue with Direct TV or Menards? You are okay with Menards employees trying to sell you stuff, but not Direct TV? A simple no to the Direct TV employee is just too much effort for you? Do you stomp your feet in a fit of rage when you receive a flyer from Direct TV in your mail or any other flyer for that matter? Do you then come on here and complain that you are receiving flyers that you do not want? Do you realize that the problem is you and not DIRECT TV? By all means go shop at Home Depot or Lowes until they PlSS you off about something even more ridiculous than this..... One more question how do you feel about the newspaper trying to give you free newspapers at the grocery store? Is that just too much to handle? Do you start shaking? Do you scream HOW DARE YOU GIVE ME A FREE NEWSPAPER THEN TRY AND CONVINCE ME TO SUBSCRIBE?

Do you suggest that Menards bears no responsibility for the goings-on within it's own store?  Sorry, they do...   Also, Menards employees do not try to sell you anything that you don't specifically inquire about.  I know of no other other store, of any kind (Department, Drug, Auto parts, or 7-11), where you have to chase-away peddlers once you entered it.  I won't tolerate it, and I have no qualms at all about being rude to these people.  Now...  If you try to tell me "...they're just doing their jobs.", then *** too.  I must admit that I have a particular dislike for unsolicited sales tactics.  I'm on the do-not-call list, I have a no soliciting sign on my front door, and I regard Telemarketers as one of the lowest forms of human life, and lump in the same category as Tapeworms and Head Lice.  (no offense intended to Tapeworms and Head Lice).  I refuse to do business with any company with these business practices, which is my poragative, and in reality, I'm mostly pissed off that more people aren't pissed off about this, and just accept it.

Most telemarketers have to do what they do so that they can live. Would you rather they went on welfare? Then what would you have to say?
