I shop at Nordstrom's, Macy's and Emporium, and I am always delighted at how NICELY I am treated at
Nordstrom's.  I am a software engineer, so I usually dress quite casual, but even then, I have
always been surprised at the courtesy and pleasantness of the salespeople.  My husband receives the
same treatment in the mens department... and he dresses even MORE casually than I do.

I have shopped at several Nordstrom's in the Bay area and have always been very happy with the 
merchandise as well as their employees.  Maybe the store at South Bay Galleria have a few less
polished employees.  I suggest that you make a complaint to the store management.  It's a shame that
a few bad employees should discourage customers from such a great store.
