You know these people never worked in a HiFi store. They have money! I remember in 79 when I was working in audio retail, making $85 bucks a week sometimes, driving a $65 61 Olds Dynamic 88, and listening to my $5000 ARC and Magneplanar rig(beg, borrow, or steal), renting a room in a crappy old roach infested house.Real glamor and status. I did that crap for ten years, and learned to hate every minute of it! If it sounds like I'm bitter about it , I am.
How many of us have worked in audio stores?
Just wondering how many of us have actually earned a living working in audio stores at some point in our lives...
To start, I used to work in Stereo Warehouse of PR in 1982-83 when I was 20 years old. The stores owners were concert promoters, so it was a triple play in which I was exposed to show business and record sales, too.
I also worked in Gallager TV in upstate NY back in 1988-89. The owner is a TV freak and a competent salesman Circuit City and Best Buy haven't been able to knock down.
Anyone else?
