I worked for the company for eight years. Yea, there were a few employees out there that thought they knew more than they did. Nature of the beast. But there were many folks who were quite the opposite and provided a lot of value to customers. My rule for my staff was to never make up answers. "I don't know, but I'll find out for you" was the appropriate response. But regardless, it was very sad to me when the business died (the brand name is still around but it's owned by some entity that uses it to push all kinds of goods to people online, not anything like when Tandy Corporation was in charge) because it really was one place that the masses could find the "little stuff" that just is hard to come buy in the retail world today.
