They put him there because they are short handed and need the coverage.

These young people are trying their best to help the customer and make some money. Please try to show some respect for them.

Learning is a few clicks way.....95% of what I know about Casio,Yamaha keyboards and others., PA sound systems etc. I have learned from you guys and other forums that I visit as often as I can, you have to have the desire to learn, not just to go for the money.

The internet has unlimited resources about everything...including the Home Depot stuff and the how to's, when I was laid off from an Office job after 17 years, I trained myself on how to do house remodeling, asking questions researching the internet for evreything I wanted to know, so if somebody is intrested in music or anything else, there's a way to do it.

So there's no excuse for a Sales person not to know @ least a little bit about what he's selling or doing for a living.
