You find those guys everywhere. I can give them a pass on an F12, but an H? I may not know much john deere, but I would know what an A,B or G was. I'd be slow looking stuff up, but they were popular enough I could at least say "I know what you're talking about, I just don't know much about them."

This past weekend I called our hose/belt supplier for a belt on the haybine. Gave them the number 460L10. Guy said it was an automotive cut and they don't have it. It wasn't an automotive cut, but if they didn't have L cuts then they didn't. So I ended up ordering a belt from another place... completely the wrong belt.

This is the second time in a week the front desk guys cost us time and money.
