Needed a bearing for the combine last night. By the time I got home Napa was closed so I had to go to O'Reily's. I needed a standard 1" flange type excentric lock sealed bearing. Probably the most common bearing available, used on everything from lawn mowers to combines. So I go in and ask for one, the guy tinkles away on his puter and goes back and comes out with a bearing. I open the box and it's not 1", not sealed, not flange type, and not excentric lock, it's a wheel bearing. So he tinkles on his puter some more and clearly has no idea, so I googled it and first thing up is the National bearing number, the brand they sell, but third is the orielys number, so I show it to him. He tinkles some more and goes back and gets another, it's 1", sealed, excentric lock, but not flange type. I have to show him that the letters at the end of the number are wrong. So more tinkling and back he goes for another. This time it's 1", sealed, flange type, excentric lock, but the last letter is G for greasable, not S for sealed, so one more time tinkling and back for finally the right one. All this wouldn't be so frustrating considering it's O'Reily's except that the whole time I'm there both counter guys are ragging on Young folks for being so stupid and not able to learn how to work or do a good job. I could only shake my head and leave hoping I don't have to go back. Lol

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
