I don't think just because you have a bad experience with one person at one store makes it right for you to blame every single person and the whole chain of stores, even if it is Auto Zone. I, myself, work at an Advance Auto in North Carolina. I am only 18 years old at the time. I took 2 years of automotive technology in high school and now I am working on my Automotvie Technology degree at a local community college. I do tractor pulling and have grown up around antique vehicles. I may not know as much about cars as everyone else but I do believe I mgiht know more than the average 18 year old, but to you that wouldn't matter. If you walked into a parts store and saw me behind the counter, you would probably just think "stupid young punk." Where am I supposed to get a start at?? Where am I supposed to get experience at?? I am not saying that in your case that you were wrong but it is people like you that make working at parts stores, suck. You have no respect for the people that are there to help you. I wish you could work there for a week and see how it is dealing with the public, oh wait, you probably know everything anyway. I don't make minimum wageand its not my first job, its been my favorite job so far, good manager, awesome people working with me. The only thing I don't like about it is when I have to deal with people like you. I'll tell you a story, I had a guy call and ask for a fuel pump for a 80's Buick Century with a V6, well I told him the only thing it was offering me was a electric pump because this engine was Fuel Injected. Well he swore up and down that its carbureted and I even read back to him, "198? Buick Century with a ?? V6?? He said yes. Well he finally ended up sayin "Well you need to change your damn computer." Well after that comment I let him talk to someone else. Guess what, he was telling me the wrong car the whole time, it was a Buick LeSabre. HA and the whole time I was wrong, and in his eyes, still am wrong. Because the customer is always right. My point is, 40% of the time people don't know what they are looking for, another 40% of the time they think they know what they are lookin for but don't know what its called, and only about 20% of the people are nice enough to deal with and aren't @$$holes about everything. I hope you never have another good experience at a parts store, just because of the way you acted after that 1 bad experience.

Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
