You are a professional and you should act as such and be as knowledgeable or more than any other non-professional. It is hard to be more knowledgeable then some geeks but you should be tied into the same places they are so you can be caught up as much as they are. Complacency is rampant in the American workforce. Don't believe me? go to any government agency, they represent the country and they are the worst. Go to any retail store, they are horrible at knowing wtf is going on in their own companies, i.e. neighboring store's activities. Sprint should have done a much better job at disseminating the proper info for a much anticipated release. That store manager should be reprimanded for not sharing his knowledge with his front line staff. That rep should be pissed at the manager for not cluing him in. That Tech should be ashamed that he is a non-geek in a geek job. He got info slapped by a more knowledgeable customer.

Although I am sure that you are completely knowledgeable and expert on every aspect of your own job and your own employer, Sprint today has 47 different devices listed as currently available on its website. I doubt even you, with your obviously superior technical skills and memory, could know everything there is to know about not only all 47 of those devices, but also all of the devices discontinued in the past few years that are still supported, plus learn all about the devices soon to be released, while also being expert on all of the plans offered as well as all corporate policies and procedures. Oh yes, don't forget about knowing all about the ways to circumvent plan restrictions and corporate policies...and keeping up with all of the non-OEM ROM compilations being distributed on all of the forums, as well as all of the rumors being bandied about...
I do not work for Sprint, but I have more reasonable expectations about the people who do work there.
