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?

worked at HiFI BUys 81-84 in East Lansing Michigan

Sold Nakamichi, ADS, McINtosh, DCM, Genesis, B&O.
Remember the slow embrace of cd's. Always enjoyed the clients, many professors, doctors etc. Like doing home installs, especially getting involved in new building projects. I had the bug early and was constantly upgrading as a college student.

I am now a geophysicist working in oil exploration in the Gulf of Mexico (helps pay for my audio vices)
