If the min-wage employee is stupid enough to PUT IN WRITING a claim about the product he's selling, he deserves whatever he gets from his managers.
And my (hypothetical) anger is with the employee who lies rather than being willing to say, "I don't know; they haven't given me that info yet." I can deal with "it hasn't come out yet and all we have is this spec sheet." I'm not very forgiving of "I'm sure it'll have all these great features! You should pre-order one (and let me get my commission!)"
