That's cool. I've found the same; when you're polite it's key to them
opening up. My experience is that some French people like to hear your story so that they can help. One time when we were there I walked into a car rental place without a reservation and asked to rent a car for the day to go to the Champagne region. The gal says curtly, "We have no cars." So I said, "Oh madame, I'm so sorry to hear that. My wife will be so disappointed; she really wanted to see Epernay on this trip she loves French champagne SO MUCH!" The gal says, "What card would you be using?" "American Express." "I will get a car for you!" I drove out of there with a souped up Citroen after thanking her profusely.
