I did my interview today with Habib Mandwee, the owner of Tiffany's, and it was just not successful, at all. I definitely take the blame for some of the 'awkwardness' but I got the vibe from him that he just did not want to talk. I had called and set up an interview with him on Friday and when I came in today he was not there. The conversation was awkward because his answers were very short and I got the distinct impression he did not want to spend time talking. I really did not feel that I had the opportunity to open him up or learn about his story.
So, I decided to change my profile to the actual place of Tiffany's and include details about the owner. I feel that the personality of the owner is definitely reflected in the atmosphere of the shop. I spent a bit more time walking around and listening to conversations between workers and customers. I definitely feel that I need to go back and ask more questions of customers, I just do not feel comfortable going back to the manager and trying to delve deeper.
I have no idea where to start with this profile, I somewhat screwed myself over by not really getting into it til today and I am disappointed with the outcome.
