"   1. Owner   style&amp;amp;gt; Distinguishing characteristic: Uses &amp;quot;I&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;we&amp;quot; when referring to the store.  Rules of engagement: Since he personally selected the store&amp;#039;s inventory, ask him why he thinks your prospective purchase is worth the money. If he can&amp;#039;t sell you on it, it probably ain&amp;#039;t worth buying.    2. Lifer   style&amp;amp;gt; Distinguishing characteristic: Can tell your sizes just by looking at you. Rules of engagement: Having sold clothes for years, he has the wisdom and, more often than not, condescending attitude to show for it. Ask informed questions (&amp;quot;Is this Super 180?&amp;quot;) to prove you&amp;#039;re a serious shopper.    3. After-schooler   style&amp;amp;gt; Distinguishing characteristic: iPhone vibrating in his pocket. (We hope it&amp;#039;s an iPhone.)  Rules of engagement: He almost certainly doesn&amp;#039;t know what he&amp;#039;s talking about, so take advantage of his energy and use him to track down sizes and ferry things to and from your fitting room.    4. Retiree   style&amp;amp;gt; Distinguishing characteristic: Within five minutes of meeting you, will mention his former occupation.  Rules of engagement: He probably works part-time and may or may not know what he&amp;#039;s talking about \u2014 take whatever he says with a grain of salt until he gives you reason not to.
