	The closest thing to a hardware store nearest me is Home Depot! I usually avoid them because I leave there so frustrated or irritated that it's not worth it. I drive a bit farther to get to something closer to a real hardware store, just so I can not deal with idiots. Went to HD to get "nailer strips" he other day to screw across two wood joints for extra support. I asked the guy stocking shelves in the lumber area for them, and he tells me they're in the "carpet area". I told him that couldn't be right, but he insisted it was. Went to carpet and the lady there tells me he's nuts, they don't have them. I finally decided to leave, and as I was walking out I walked past them at the end of the row where the guy was stocking shelves. Must have been a whole 30' away from him.

	I would think that if you had told him their use he might have been able to help. He, I'm sure was thinking of carpet nailing strips, she, I'm not too sure about. All I know is that for what those large discount stores pay their employees I can't expect a geat deal. I guess that in the end, you get what you pay for, and can't expect much more.

I guess that in the end, you get what you pay for, and can't expect much more. I told him exactly what they were used for. He didn't even know what a "nailer strip" was until I told him how they were used. I have no idea what they get paid, but I'd think a guy working in a specific dept. like lumber would know the area he stocks. Now if I'd asked about paint I'd expect he might be lost.
