Dude! I think you and I are living mirrored lives or something sir, as I worked at foot locker from 02-03 and my manager would do something eerily similar! My manager’s name was Rex and I swear he was like THE Foot Locker staple basically my entire life. I remember him lacing up my first Nike’s when I was a kid and him pushing the water proofer even then to my sweet struggling waitress mama lol. Fate would have it that 11-12 years later I would be working alongside Rex, still in awe at his salesmanship with the water proofer lol.
Oh wow haha! Wonder if that was a trick they taught managers somewhere along the way? That was one of the few extras I was OK at selling because I actually used it and believed in it. I was AWFUL with those multis and got lectured about it all the time. Luckily they stopped tracking those. My manager was John. He later got busted for murdering his pregnant wife and hiding the body, but that's a whole other story lol.
