are there any jobs that don’t try to push customers for extra things?

i’ve worked a few jobs. all four of my jobs were different retail jobs. a liquor store, two pet stores, and i had two jobs at a big company- one as a cashier and one in the pharmacy. at all of them i was always pushing to sell the customer something else.

i know the rewards system thing is common. one pet store made me push a pet deal type program. you pay a monthly fee (the contract lasts a year) for cheaper foods specific to a pet group (ie retile, fish, cat, dog…), deals on litter/grooming, etc. but it really wasn’t a good deal unless you worked there or were there at least once a week buying something.

at the liquor store i was pushing to sell whatever the daily deal was. shooters, vodka, etc. which i understand but some old man buying a 6 pack of budweiser doesn’t want fireball.

the big company didn’t push cashiers to do much but stand there and look pretty (didn’t have great managers to tell us we were supposed to be pushing anything but found out after i quit that we were supposed to be pushing credit cards and all that) but the pharmacy is what surprised me. i thought i was safe from trying to convince people to do something they didn’t originally want to do. i thought i was safe from learning a whole new script, memorizing something to say that might be accurate to their situation (like buying cat food at the pet store i would always ask if they wanted to sign up for the cat benefit program) but NO. here i am selling vaccines (sometimes for free based on insurance) and memorizing which vaccines could fit their situation.

it got me wondering if there are any jobs that don’t do this. i’ve noticed even my doctors office is pushing me to get 5 different apps for communication (patient portal thing) and always asking me if i want a flu shot. every place ive worked has had a tally board, each person having their own tally’s, a whole number of tally’s, and a goal number.
