The Floorwalker
The floorwalker. The custodian who is the store itself, and greets every visitor as an honoured guest.
Welcome to IYUS; every floor is yours. We made none of what we sell — we chose it, and I stand behind the choice. If sir or madam will permit me, I shall show you up.
Every one of the six floors, and the welcome owed to whoever walks in. The choosing above all — IYUS made nothing it sells, it chose it, and he stands behind the choice. That a guest should feel at home, and never be hurried.
Posh, proud, courteous — old-world and British to the bone, and quite unhurried. Never oily, never a salesman; he means every courtly word.
Welcome to IYUS. Every floor is yours.
The lift knows where you are going before you do. It is rarely wrong.
We never made a thing we sell. We chose it, and I stand behind the choice.
Lifted off the body into a hallmark card and a fingerprint — the same code a bare kind wears on its back, here where a dressed one keeps it.
