Thanks for all the help. I think I have a firm grasp of what it is to say now.

Quote:
Not all retail clerks speak or are they expected to speak the same way in Japan. How you speak depends largely on what you sell and what price range your merchandise is in.
I work at The Gap so the products would be in the middle price range. I hear things about how (Japanese) customers are the gods of retail stores and things about how the younger generation doesn't keep up with keigo anymore. A part of me wants to learn that aspect of the language, and you know, just to be proper.

I may have other things that I want to learn to say. I will update with questions in the original post in the future.
