I went into a Lowes (similar to Home Depot) to see if they had a work bench like I saw in a different Lowe's a week ago. They couldn't find it and the 1 guy (there were 3 people at the desk) said I should have bought it when I saw it. WTF? I happened to see it on the way out and didn't have my truck. I went out to my truck and called another Lowe's and they had no idea. Then I called Debi to ask her if she remembered which Lowe's it was. Yes, so I called that Lowe's and they said the store I was at showed 6 of them in stock and gave me a number. For some reason it's listed as a rack commercial. The legs are like racking but it's only 3ft. high with a table top. Regardless what it's called it's really frustrating when people working in a store don't know what they sell. It's very much like parts people who can't figure out what you need without the actual part number. I made sure to push the cart past their station and tell them they had it. The guy said "oh was it on clearance?" No, you had 6 in stock, it's a regular item. Learn what the hell you sell!
Went to get some Hyd. Fluid at Walmart because it's $15 to $20 cheaper than anywhere else. They were lost and even after they found it in the system couldn't tell me if another store(s) had stock. So I drove to another store and the girl was also lost and couldn't tell me if another store had it. She said I could order it online. That doesn't help me much if I need it tomorrow.
It's so hard to buy anything today so when you actually find someone who has a clue it makes you appreciate even more. They are few and far between.
