Notice in the manual they are being trained to trick you into believing they are something that they are not:
Introducing Yourself and Talking with the Clerk When entering a store for an audit, we have found it helpful to introduce ourselves to the staff. If possible, try not to ask the clerk questions if there are other customers in the store in need of assistance.
However, there are a few audit questions that may require assistance from the clerk. Often, you may find you are the only person in the shop.
Many clerks are eager to share their enthusiasm for vaping with new customers. Be aware that some stores, particularly corporate chains, have policies that prohibit employees from participating in surveys. Others may ask you to contact the franchise warehouse or store owners before completing an audit. Also, please note that the FDA conducts inspections of tobacco retailers around the country, sometimes using covert officers.
Likewise, some local agencies conduct inspections of tobacco retailers (often to assess issues like youth purchase).
You may have to clarify that you are not an inspector by carrying some form of professional identification and using a script like the following:
“Hello, my name is _______________. I am conducting a project looking at different vaping products that are sold in stores and how they are marketed to customers. I would like to look around for a few minutes if it’s ok with you. I will not get in the way of any of your customers. I am not an inspector, nor do I have any connections to other stores or to the media. Thank you for your help and for letting me visit your store.”
So, First say "that the FDA conducts inspections of tobacco retailers around the country, sometimes using covert officers. Likewise, some local agencies conduct inspections of tobacco retailers"
But if that doesn't scare you into talking go with: "I am conducting a project "
If that don't fly say the opposite of what you first said: "I am not an inspector, nor do I have any connections to other stores or to the media."
Seems like some shady ass shit if you ask me.
What do you guys think? - 5150
6. Can you survey this store? [If not, then select an option below and STOP.] Select “Yes” if you are able to complete the entire store assessment. If asked to leave store before fully completing, mark “No, asked to leave before completing survey”.
So Be Aware You Can Tell Them NO but they will be trying to scare you into complying = Shady Fuckers
