New Invention for the House?

By experience I realized when you buy something for the house we live in, it is best to deal with an old timer. We went to Home Depot today and a bright young girl asked to help us and first we asked about a certain type of light bulb which she was very helpful. She knew her light bulbs. Then we asked her where the carport light fixtures were. She looked at us like she didn't comprehend. "You know, the glass thing that hold your light flush to the carport ceiling." Blank look. I bet she was thinking to herself, "What the hell is a carport?" She told us she would find someone who knows his stuff and she left. We were waiting, and down the aisle we saw a middle age with an orange apron on headed directly towards us, like he had a mission. He probably did have a mission to help us but he was intercepted by a woman who asked him a question. He got bogged down helping her. We looked again and saw two old timers with orange aprons standing talking. We went up to one old fart and he knew exactly what a carport was and also a carport light fixture. And he helped us with a couple others items also.
