Sunday and my usual hardware guys is closed. The wife needs topsoil and Franks has gone out of business; so Home Depot. I send her over to the garden dept. and I head over to plumbing supplies. I turn into one of the aisles and there are three female employees, two on the ground and one on a ladder putting up copper pipe. I say to the two on the ground,
"Excuse me, can you tell me where I can find 3/8" escutcheons". (I am plumbing out a pedastal sink.),
"The whaaat??", she responds.
"Escutcheons, you know for sinks."
"OOh, Sinks are over there", she says pointing." I don't want a sink," I say.
Blank Stare.
"Escutcheons, you know for the supply lines." I try again helpfully.
Blank Stare.
Just then a guy comes by pushing a dolly full of interior doors.
" Come with me", he says, "I think they are over here".
As we turn the corner into the aisle I hear:
" What did he want?" from the ladder.
"I have no Ideea".
When will I learn.
