Rude behavior from store employees is not acceptable, period. I would hope this never happens to you again. However, if it should, respectfully state you meant to cause no harm. If a bad attitude persists, speak with someone in charge. It the manager happens to be the person with the lousy attitude, remind him (or her) that the hostility is unwarranted and that not only will you not support his business in the future, but that you'll encourage your friends not to do so either. You could also return to the shop in question with either of your parents in tow to help establi***hat you're not trouble-makers, but rather teens who are truly interested in establishing a mutually benefical relationship because of your love of the hobby. Hobby shops are few and far between in comparison to other businesses (such as clothing outlets) and many of them are struggling to keep the doors open. Treating people harshly is foolish and doesn't exactly endear the owner to potential new customers. For the record, you should also know that adults have had similar experiences; you're not alone. Best of luck to you in the future.
