I didn't even mean in a transaction in the motor trade, I just meant in this discussion. Just helps one build up a picture of the kind of person one's dealing with. You literally just said "I know more than you, and I get paid lots of money too"
This kind of person is probbably a person that one wouldn't want as a customer, e.g. anyone with an inflated sense of self importance, that's before we get to slipping in the fact that "I will be recording you at work".
I can't think of any company that will let you sit there and record their employees at work, you may get some that are ok with you filming in their retail stores, sure. Otherwise it's not going to happen.
Do you struggle with the view someone might know more than you? I simply tried to provide context as to why, you want to make that an issue, but let's park that, it is a pointless discussion of you said I said.
Many companies record their employees, why is that do you think?
Let's assume they have concerns that some employees are untrustworthy, a fair assumption as they are, as are many of their customers.
So why should I blankly accept they are trust worthy because a person who wants my money tells me they are?
I film no one.
I tell no one what I do
I, like most people go in, buy, walk out 99% of the time.
However, the question in the OP was the basis of this thread and my suggestion was if you want to film be open, tell the people because if they have an issue you can go elsewhere, their loss. You want to suggest it's not your loss as the customer will be trouble when in fact most aren't, you just seek to make the point who is boss, you in your mind. That's fine, customer isn't always right but they are free to shop anywhere they want and spend their money with those they wish to.
To add everyone that comes to my house on business is filmed. Virtually every retail outfit I walk into will flim me. Most major car dealers will film me, their staff and the grounds. I don't have an issue with that, same as when I took the 570S for a test drive I had zero issue with the sales person attaching cameras to film my driving. To my point, the issue of concern is yours, one might ask what are you scared of a customer seeing? We are not talking about a BBC film crew either, your issue is with a forward/backward facing fixed camera that most of the time will film a wall, bonnet or nothing. I'd not film people myself, but I can understand why people might wish to as the motor trade is full of bandits.
