I've considered just answering with "fuck off" whenever somebody comes up to me unasked, but I'm just not rude enough.

  They're just doing their job though. Even when telemarketing was common I never felt that was an appropriate response.

    Exactly; it would be effective, but inappropriate.

    You just pre-Godwin'ed the thread. No one is required to take a job as a professional harasser. And if you really have sympathy for the employees, then consider that the more victims fight back, the fewer people would join the profession, and wages would increase, hurting the evil owners.

      Man, I'm not exactly a bleeding-heart type but even I would find that behavior on the part of the customer rude. You know a better way to "hurt the evil owners"? Just don't go to that store at all. But asking a customer a question is not a crime (unlike your Nuremberg analogy), these "victims" chose to walk into the store (unlike Nuremberg again), and being needlessly rude is needless, not required.
