    There’s always a retired plumber or two working in the plumbing section. Maybe not other sections, but definitely plumbing. Good luck out there, DIYers!

      Not at the one I worked at. I claimed to be whatever the person asked me about though because entitled customers who can’t do basic research deserve wrong answers pulled from my ass.

      Yea, plumbing was a poor choice for title, hah. Every home store in places I’ve lived always seems to have a knowledgeable person.

      The city I live in has two big box stores. One has a retired plumber in the plumbing section. I’ll drive further to go to that one and wait patiently for his advice.
