ORIGINAL: fillae

I worked at a hardware store when I was in college. People would get upset when you don't know the exact answer to a plumbing or electrical question. It's not like ACE could afford to pay a plumber $20/hour to work in their plubming department. It's been my personal experience that store salespeople can help you find something, but you need to know what you're looking for.
Agreed...

I believe that these stores can afford to pay enough money to get knowledgable people to fill the positions, but it is all about the bottom line.

We had a Gander Mountain open up close to my house and a friend and I went there towards the end of Goose season last year looking for some steel shot and they had sold out. But across the aisle was stacks of Pheasant shot, I looked at him and said yea we have alot of pheasants in Va.

Any time I go into a store like that, I go in there with the mind set that i know what I'm looking for and I've already done the research on the product, etc. Like some of the other posts said, the chain stores are just looking for bodies to fill in positions and most of them don't know much about sporting goods.

Example (maybe some of you have encountered this or it is an actual law but I had never had this happen before). I was 19 at the time, went into wal-mart to buy some cheap .22 long rifle shells. Now, you have to be 18yrs to buy rifle ammo and 21 to buy pistol ammo. The jerk working in the sporting goods would NOT sell me .22LR ammo because he said that it can be used in a .22 pistol, thus (to him) designating it as a pistol cartridge! I gave him a really funny looked and had a few words with him, then just left, feeling that it would be better if I chalked it up has him being on a power trip and not getting in a fight. Just went to a real sporting goods and bought the ammo (like I should have done in the first place!).
