It was during my last semester at the local vocational-tech college earning my electronics degree. I actually stunned a few customers as the unicorn sales person who actually understood electronics and most of the things sold in the store. Of course that was not a path to wealth for me as it was a job very much paid on 10% commission. You cannot sell enough transistors to break minimum wage. You needed to throw in a couple of tape decks and some speaker systems each week to break that barrier.Actually sold the heck out of telephones and the associated cords and accessory devices, as well as the video cables of the time. Rad-Shack was the best resource for that kind of stuff at that specific time.</blockquote>
