I am puzzled that some people expect a clerk to know everything about all things. It is just not possible , regardless of how long they have been employed. Let up. Enjoy life.
The local Menards is a good example of a big store that handles a lot of product. Not only do the clerks know where everything is, they can also make a good recommendation as to the product that would be best for your needs.

The biggest problem is attitudes like yours that make poor service acceptable. I agree with the original poster, the clerk should have done a better job with product knowledge and customer service.
