The lady was yelling and waving, but I could not hear her since my talk radio station was too loud, and I did not wave back, because I did not want to her to think I supported the Liberty Tax Company. This brief encounter, however, got me thinking: “What is the etiquette for these types of situations?”I know politicians often do the “honk and waves” as election time nears.
This is surely to get their name out there and fresh in the minds of drivers heading to the polls. I have also seen the 13 year olds advertising the Little Ceasers pizza that is “Hot N Ready for 5 bucks.” 
This must work as advertising because many companies have resorted to these tactics. I cannot honestly say that it has ever swayed my decisions when searching for fast food.Back to the Liberty Tax Lady. Part of me feels bad that she is outside all day waving and trying to draw attention to herself with little to no reward. Should I have just honked and waved and then went on my way, even though I will never go to that business? Or did I do the right thing, to not give her any false hope of someone that supports that business?
Aside from requiring their “street workers” to act ridiculous...I do not have anything against Liberty Tax, except that they have outrageous prices and I really like my tax guy. (He’s in South Jordan if anyone is looking for a good one. If one of you six readers goes to him, we both get a discount on our tax preparation fees.)I have thought about this way too much, but I am still curious to know what the right decision is? I turn it over to you: the readers. Let me know. I think Mascots belong in stadiums, arenas, or other sports venues, not on the road to add yet another distraction to drivers.
