I mean come on now. I go into the computer department and I ask them an easy question and they just bullshit me telling me complete garbage. Do they train this people to be idiots. You would think a person selling computers would atleast know about what they where selling.

I made a media school project once, about salesmen. This resulted in a 20 mins video with interviews and all kinds of stuff. The video turned out to be the funniest one ever made on the school. When seeing the video it was so obvious that the salesmen where lying to promote stuff they couldn't sell if they told the truth. We even sent the movie to some educated psychiatrists and made them analyze their behavior. This resulted in a letter to the "consumer obudsman", that in the end made an official statement about a discussion of a new law in DK about NOT bullshitting people.

the reason people who work at best buy are so dumb is because they wouldnt hire me. im sorry if i have no official experience working with computers (7 years, since i was 9)and im sorry if i have no formal education (10+ classes in computer repair alone) and im sorry if most of what i do all day is the same as the listed activities for the job. i also have never lied about something i told someone to buy, and usually they do buy it.

best buy wouldnt know someone with skills if i beat the living shit out of them with one of their intellimouses.

kidding

I have seen glue used to hold cables in so they could see if you tampered with it.

HAHA..
that is a joke right?
It's retail...the chances you know more then they do are far greater then the other way around.
I guess pray you know what you need enuff not to ask one of their morons.
And actually I do think they train them to be overly stupid otherwise how could you account for the high proportion of them in the sales section....just doesn't seem there would be that MANY stupid people in existance in the world...wait a take that back

Stupidest thing I've ever seen is someone bought an OEM CPU (PIII 450) and a heatsink, and used electrical tape to hold the heatsink to the CPU in their system: the thing burned out in less than a day. And he was a software salesman at Best Buy. I would have thought that with the exposure to computers that he'd had he would have known better!

Good point Hellraiser. You would think if these people know nothing when they started the job that they would eventually have to learn something if they sell computer 5 days a week.

Not to mention the rip off at the checkout counter. "Would you like Best Buy's warranty?" "No, I'd rather burn my money." The warranty is bullshit. Most goods have a warranty already, and it's better than Best Buy's. NEVER GET THE WARRANTY if you buy from those jackals.
