Retail workers are doing that? Seems odd.

    Have you never been to a high-end store where the retail workers just act sorta superior to you because they sell expensive things you can't afford (but at the same time make multiple times less than you because they're retail workers and you're not)? It's that kinda thing. It's weird af.

    They're paid to act that way. In case a rich is in the store... Can't have a rich person seeing a poor treated with respect.

    It's all about reinforcing class norms
