I tend to find that the smaller the station, the sounder the staff. The guys in Edgeworthstown are generally relatively helpful. In the bigger stations, staff seem to end up spending most of their time chatting with each other and I presume having a good moan about the state of the company.

The staff in Edgeworthstown won't have had any training on leap card and will almost certainly never have actually used one. If they were lucky, there might have been an article in a company newsletter, but you can be fairly sure that if they know nothing about it, it probably isn't their fault.

As for Longford, I remember trying to buy a Sail Rail ticket there once, and they were so unhelpful and useless that I abandoned the whole thing after 20 minutes and just bought it over the phone.
