I gotta agree with the bunny on this one.

Welcome to the wonderful world of retail.

Try working in a radioslack for a couple years.

[RednBlack]

And the customer is always right, no matter how wrong they may be! At least you get to crawl into a decent car at the end of the day. Look at what most of your customers drive.

Yeah, welcome to retail. Im never doing shit with public again, too many headaches

[gpse3400]

Heaven forbid if I ever do retail againI had better be either running the entire store or a load of them.

Try doiung a search at your store for the Lumina Z34. When you go through vehicles, got to chevy, then when ti gives the list, somehow in Colorado at Advanced Auto it has Lumina at the very bottom. Then if you scroll down you see Euro, Euro 2 door, Z34 coupe, etc. Well they never scroll down, and EVERY FUCKING time the person is like, "uh that motor didn't come in that car, is it a swap?" God I want to kill them.

well one of the times i worked retail I sold shoes a big 5 sporting goods, I was a manager for like 3 years. and I gotta say working at a parts store sounds like a dream retail job to me. you talk about people not knowing thier shit,
"I don't know my shoe size but I know that the right one is 1 size bigger that the left", and 99.9% of the time it was'nt. I am now grateful to be out of retail, I only wish I went to school like everybody told me, at least now I'm a courier which is cool because my office is my Grand Prix which is hard on the car (ave. 300 miles a day), but very soothing to me.
anyways I feel your pain. Retail sucks, and I hope your going to school.
