    I find it best to show a picture of the product from the phone. Just use google images.

    What ? If they don't have it on stock we are the ones to blame. Rather weird logic. As we all know and no need to repeat it again, the staff nor the managers care if it is on stock or not. They just dont give a s..... But they are to blame. It is in their hands to change this "out of stock' not ours. But knowing the Philippines this will never happen and therefore this is a useless discussion. Your mentioning the circumstances of their lives and works sounds like a Filipino loser. There are sucessful Filipino business and sales men. No problem. The rest loves to blame the system, corruption, salary and don't want to change anything. They are happy with "out of stock". Less stress and no need to use the brain.[emoji12]

    I have found that describing, as best as I possibly can with as simple of English as I can, the item instead of giving the actual name of what I'm looking for helps out a lot. It gives both the salesperson and myself a learning experience to try to figure it out.

    I learned this while trying to find chicken broth at Hypermart that was, unbelievably, "out of stock". Try simplifying that one anymore than the word "broth", absolutely nothing you can say about broth is going to click with someone who doesn't already know what broth is in English. Luckily for me an old Filipina lady overheard us talking and grabbed to the broth cubes that were within arms length of us and handed it to me...and then gave us both a "you are idiots" look and walked away...then it clicked with the sales girl, she perked up and called it by it's trademark name and looked at me like I was the idiot for not knowing that it should be called by it's brand name (which was completely unrelated to the product). :shifty:
