This is better service than I received this past week. I went to four different stores in an hour. Everyone of them told me they did not have the part and could not get it. I brought the part with me which had the manufacturer and part number.
When no one cares about their service or product, people just start giving up. Ayn Rand wrote about this in Atlas Shrugged. People in this country have given up.
Giving up is not the same as going Galt.

Kudos! How dead-on is this child? Even down to hauling “ole lard bucket” outta the chair to waddle one’s fat ass to find the part.
Too much smiling, though,. Those fkrs never smile at me!
The $28+ bucks for the spark plug sounds about right, today.
Quite a few, yes. It’s part of the “What’s The Use?” phenomenon we’re all uncomfortably familiar with.
Still having very difficult time getting auto parts, (All makes) how long have these unions been back to work? No answers, no availability on commonly needed components! System ‘feels’ like its flailing. Dollar stores shelves are thinning, other times stock is everywhere in the isles can not get enough help. Erratic, no consistency!
Be grateful for what we do have daily!
Lol, this kid nailed it!
I was looking for a rear brake cylinder for my 1989 Ford F-100 and the prices I saw at my local stores were crazy high!
I did find the parts online at a really good price so I bought for both sides just in case.
I was at an auto parts store in Blairsville recently looking for a fuse. The young man helping me could not find it but gave it a good try. He told me to go across the street where I found the fuses myself within 30 seconds.
I would recommend that people do not want to see someone spitting their chewing tobacco juice into an empty soda bottle multiple times while assisting customers as was done at the first store.
Cute rendition if not actually sad as well. Reminds me of a cartoon during the Reagan firing of the traffic controllers. Bunch of kids directing traffic with skateboards lying on the floor and one kid using a mirror looking at the screen behind him. Tour guide says…”We decided to hire the kids because they never miss.”
She didn’t ask enough irrelevant questions.
Is it a reg/super/crew cab?
What drive?
What trim level?
Does it have A/C?
What engine?
What transmission?
Electric or wind-up windows?
Before I even head out anymore, I look up the big three (or four) in my town and see if they even have it on next day delivery.
Ever gone in with the EXACT part number and had the slack-jaw behind the counter tell you that ain’t the part you need? I didn’t ask you what I need, son I TOLD you what I need. Nothin worse than a know it all child with a computer parts list.
