Walked into a shop on the Champs ElyseeSells perfumes, cosmetics and various beauty products
Big shop, well laid out , large range of products
Full of people
Funny energy
Like they had a bus waiting around the corner parked on a double yellow line
As if the shop would close in five minutes
Like the products were the last one's on the planet
Almost a feeding frenzy
Buying like there was no tomorrow
Madness, pushing shoving
Utter greedy mindless behaviour
Came out went into other shops nearby
Calm pleasant atmospheres
What had been going on in that shop?
Loud driving music?
Yes
Similar narcissistic consumers
Yes
Expensive brands
Yes
And over all a total preoccupation with self
Me, only I exist
I want
out of my way
Imagine one selfish customer sees another looking at some product
pushes to see as well
she might get the last one
What are you looking at?
What have you found?
Let me push in front of you in case you have found something I haven't seen before
And all that to buy things that are also available in other shops nearby!
Signs of the times
