I just called them today and asked them for a price on a decibel
meter. The sales boy on the other end of the phone said "We have some
multimeters?"... Ugh.
I can actually top that. In the early 90's, I used to do some software
work for an electronics store called Supertronix. We sold stuff like
Radio Shack, but we actually knew what the hell was going on. :) Anyway,
one of the high-school kids that was working there told us about the time
he went into RS looking for a GaSFET and was promptly told that he might
have better luck in an auto parts store.
