Shoutout to the guy at Rocky River hardware who helped me find the right drywall anchor

I spent 45 minutes staring at the anchor display trying to figure out which ones hold a shelf in old plaster walls. He walked over, handed me the toggle bolts without me even asking, and I was done in 10 minutes. Anyone else have random hardware store heroes save them time?

Kid at the Ace over on Lorain Road spent twenty minutes helping me figure out which paint sprayer tip wouldn't clog with the thick latex I was using. Didn't try to upsell me on the expensive model either, just pointed me to the cheap one and said 'this'll work fine'. Felt like I owed that dude a six pack after I ran a whole room in half the time I planned.
