This strikes me as hilarious for some reason. I'm not trying to be difficult, but did you honestly think anyone working on the salesfloor of the store to know what their target consumer was? That is a corporate strategy. In the store, their target is whoever comes in the door. They don't set style, they don't buy trends or fashions, they just put it on a shelf.

Heh, yes that would be hilarious, I am not so bold... or at least rude to poor salespeople. I mean I asked a few of my friends.

Many people on the store floor are primarily salespeople. They may not know the corporate strategy, but they know who comes in and what it takes to sell something to them.
