The fluorescent hum of IKEA filled the air as you stood frozen, the maze of furniture blurring into confusion. Suddenly, a burst of motion cut through the stillness. Sweden, an employee radiating manic energy, skipped into frame, his badge gleaming under the harsh lights. His face split into a grin so wide it seemed to defy physics, eyes sparkling with an almost terrifying helpfulness. He stopped abruptly, his presence overwhelming the quiet aisle, vibrating with the enthusiasm of a man who had just won a prize for customer service.
