Having to be nice to the people you
wouldn't (or may) piss on if you met in the street. Bad breath &
BO
yuck. Strong enough to actually make you physically start to
retch. Definately not missed as much as the staff
discount.

One of the reasons I didn't get on too well
with
the Manager of Maplin's
Glasgow (not the current manager, I stress:
Gavin
is a decent bloke) I was a
bit too "ethical" for his likes.
"no
sir,
I will not help you with your design for a Radio control jammer."
I
got
pretty good at spotting the parts list for a bug, and in once case had
a
truly shifty guy wander up and start asking about blooteringly
silly
values
of Capacitors, and being rather pointed about what happened when
you
rapidly discharged them..
not questions like "what rating
would
a resistor have to have to handle that
current", more like "how hot
would
that get, and how fast?"
when he presented a parts list riddled with
High Value caps, 555 timers,
some high wattage resistors, and some
chunky
cable, we looked at him oddly.
when he asked where he could buy meths in
5L
containers, we told him to
bugger off, and phoned RS and Taits with a
rough
description...
Still, I remember a guy coming in to show us a set of
walkie talkies he had
got on Holiday in Italy (they must have been well
illegal there too) These
things were monstous in size, like an army
field
phone, and broadcast slap
in the middle of the 88-108 band, but the
rated
power on them was 5W. 5W!!
right beside your head! He couldn't get the
point that the "massive range"
wasnt really a good
thing.....
Shudder. I forgot how disturbing working with the great
unwashed actually
was...
