I'm the guy on the door who welcomes people to the store and helps them find their stuff. I've had people come in and say "I'm looking for a screw". I had a pretty lady come up to me and say "I need a stud finder" and it took all my self control not to say "Look no further, for I am a stud..." In fact, there's so much filth in the store, I wrote a sketch about it. "If you want to get your hands on some nuts or a length of rod, head over to aisle 16 where the guys who are the best in Tool department will guarantee your satisfaction...."Damian Traslerhttp://www.dtrasler.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422555164465305734.post-52515681543817584822011-03-02T06:34:33.719-08:002011-03-02T06:34:33.719-08:00I do invoicing at a construction company.
