Sick of Autozone and Checker.

Another one coming from the other side of the counter, from AZ actually!
I'm working there part-time until i graduate in Feb.

I know that most people don't understand the year/make/model thing but that is how our computer systems are set-up to look up part numbers, i know it's a pain in the butt sometimes believe me i have now been on both sides of the counter and know how frustrating it can be! But without this basic information for us to look up it's almost inpossible to find the right parts in the system!
But like said in another post there are ALOT of people who come in for parts that have no idea what they are driving except it's a blue Ford and these people are working on there own friggin cars, which to me is scary!
I had a guy come in a while back that wanted a Drain and Fill gasket for his Olds.! Any idea what the hell that is? Well it turned out he wanted a trans. pan gasket! When i gave it to him he pulls out the filter and says that's not a gasket, so i tell him it's in the box he looks then turns and walks away!
These are the kind of genius's we have to deal with every day!
I have had other encounters like this with people that should never hold a wrench but are still working on there cars even though they have no idea what they are doing!
I'm the old car and Mopar guy at the AZ i work because i don't know to much about the newer cars so i let the younger guys deal with them usually!
