NO HELP PLEASE!

NO HELP PLEASE!
Who has had the experience of some benevolent stranger at track trying to "HELP" you load or unload your trailer?
....."stranger" being the key word here.
My friends know my rig, and know I don't need "help" and if I do they'll spot me, which I'm grateful for.
But every SINGLE time someone unfamiliar wants to "HELP" it screws things up and I always forget something.
My question: how to tell someone to NO MEANS NO REALLY NO!!! GO AWAY PLEASE politely?
My point: if you see someone at track who appears to need assistance, and you are kind enough to offer assistance to them, PLEASE do that person a favor and accept NO THANK YOU, I'M GOOD! as a final answer.
Whew. OK. Thank you.

Watched a fan at VIR for OTGP a couple years back trying to help a big factory team push a damaged car onto the liftgate on their transporter. Needless to say, they were not so nicely reminded to stay back.

I don't like people talking to me when I load up and I certainly don't strike up conversations with others as they load/unload their trailers. I think by and large, most people are trying to be helpful and just don't know.

+1 to all of the above.
The only help I accept when loading is guidance that I get on straight and will miss the fenders and license plate (mounted on taillight).

I like when somebody tries to be "nice" and help direct the car on and when you get out your car is way to the left or to the right on the trailer. I'm like why do they keep pointing to the left or right when I know it's just straight on.

Thx but it's like fending off volunteer offers of "entertainment" at track.
Batting eyelids: a. Not my thing b.Bound to backfire. Plus it's unnatural and undignified. At least for me.
Prob a good firm Resting Bitch Face will be most effective.
Last time someone "helped" me I forgot my cooler and jack and folding chair at the garage. Time before that it broke my OEM Trailex lock. Time before, they didn't pull up the jack completely: cost 6k.
I'm thinking I'll get a Tshirt: No means no.

I thought when a woman says No it means things are open to negotiation or at least a rufie.
