|  |     interesting, this is the third time in the last week I've heard
    a negative comment regarding Fish.  In all fairness, I must say
    that although he seems a bit cantankerous at times, I have never
    really had any problems with him like those described above.  His
    help does seem to leave a bit to be desired, but I have never noticed
    any overcharging on his part.  Hmmmm, we'll have to watch more
    carefully next time.....

    at the same location, for at least 13-14 years, why he should suddenly
    start developing unsavory habits leaves me at a loss.  Attributing
    these negative comments to his help seems a more acceptable course
    of action.  I would be interested in hearing about these other
    incedents in detail.  I don't think the guy should be condemned
    if he only pisses people off, look at Ray in Worcester, no one likes
    him very much, that I know of, yet people still patronize his business.

        always been friendly to me, as have all his employees.  His store
        is not the cheapest  around, but selection is good and he is good
        at getting stuff from product  lines  he  normally carries.  An I
        have NEVER had even the slightest overcharge.
        
                You are not the first to  accuse Bob of being unfriendly.
        If it's the person you don't like,  shop  on  Saturdays when Jack
        Buckley minds the store. Jack is super friendly.
