Here's a tip I've found useful: if I show up somewhere after closing time and find that the door is locked, it's because the store is closed.
Hey, I edited my post. I'd appreciate if you could tell me what you think about the edit. But to summarize it, I thought that they didn't know the store is closed and tried to put myself in their shoes (in that situation it wouldn't hurt to just clarify it). Of course if they knew that the store is closed, and just wanted some personal acknowledgement, that's ridiculous. And if they wanted to push the worker to still serve them or something like that, that would have been really awful.
Some people here told awful stories about customers, and if that's the baseline, I can understand why you have a bad prejudice against someone knocking at the door. This might also be a cultural thing. But I still usually think that it's not good to ignore them (and you can never know their true intentions), there can be valid concerns (e.g. I once lost a wallet inside a store and was very grateful for the staff to help me).
What if it's after closing time, it's locked, but the people inside are nodding at me?
They're not nodding at you, they're listening to good music.
It's after closing time. So leave.
Green light, happy shopping!
what if some are nodding and others are shaking their heads
DANCE PARTY
What if they're doing this?
I'd get sexually aroused
Then they have some illegal after-hours business going on and are waiting for you to say the password.
Is it password1?
It's 'swordfish'.
It's hunter2.
