It's more along the lines of the 7-11 clerk looking at you, saying "I
like how you look, come in the store" and then the clerk looking at the
next person and saying "I don't like how you look, go away, you can't
come in". I'm trying to tell you how to look nice for the clerk, not
how to hide something in your coat and walk out.

Remember, I'm coming from doing the job of having to tell a guy who
would buy from us a lot if he had a catalog that he can't have one,
give him some lame reason and refer him to our website instead, because
he doesn't have enough employees for his SIC code or because he has the
"wrong" job title. It breaks your heart after a while.

The catalog cost about $9 to produce, which is less than the manpower
expense they spend deciding wether to send you one if you request it.
