while the salesman tried to show someone how to get the back off her Nokia,
when I saw she (the sales rep) didn't know and helped out, everyone
benefited. OTOH I had to go back to the ever diminishing racks of components
and get their part number for the diodes I was buying. Should have just told
her they were 2c resistors.

Still, gives some of us more sarcastic buggers hours of entertainment
watching staff run back and forth from catalogue to Manager back to

PS And yes, before anyone asks, I HAVE worked in that industry, many years
ago when you were hired because you actually knew what you were talking
