I needed a roller bearing for an outdrive unit. The bearing had spun in the housing and part of the number was obliterated. I went to a place called Precision Bearing and asked about a replacement. Some dumpy little dork on the counter with a stub of a cigar in his mug took one look at it and said, "It would be a G--D--- waste of time to even try", handed it back to me, and walked off.
