My .02. I have been to the RT three times last week and yesterday. No problems. No issues. Selected what I wanted. Went to the register, paid for it and left. The guys seemed OK to me but everyone has a different experience.

No boat, back in the suds.

I used to go in and see familiar faces like Jimmy,Bob and Nelson who would all offer more than enough help and information. Now I see new faces that are younger but every bit as helpful as the old guard was. I have to say this post is a low blow to RT in every manner. It seems you chose to take it to the lowest level,which is similar to the way you were treated by the employee. If it bothered me enough to badmouth them on the net then I simply would have settled it on the spot with the offender, rather than hide behind the computer and beyotch about hurt feelings. Teach the kid to stand up for himself by setting an example,let him know that the best way to settle differences is to look somebody in the eye,exchange some words,and get a resolution on the spot.No lingering bad mojo;handshakes and smiles all around. Treat small shops like this and we will all be shopping for gear at Walmart for fishing gear.
