| - Went in to get a small screwdriver to fix a PS3 controller. I could only find tool kits with multiple screwdrivers in them. So I figured "what the hell" and picked one out to buy. When we got to the counter, my wife asked the cashier (senior manager, according to his name tag) if they might actually have some individual screwdrivers that we might have overlooked. "Absolutely not." Was his answer. What the hell? Was that really such an outlandish, out-of-nowhere question to ask? I mean, really, not "No we don't", "No. Sorry." Or just plain "Nope."? Nothing as remotely civil as that from this jerk. "Absolutely not."? Really? We were obviously already willing to buy the kit/set, but we thought we'd just make sure it was our only option first and he responds like we asked him if we could just take it home for free or something. I really don't understand his rude, condescending attitude, but it ensured that I won't go back in his near-obsolete store again. Next time, I'll just order what I need online. It'll take a few days to get, but it'll probably be a good deal cheaper and I won't have to deal with anyone's shitty attitude.
