Almost every auto parts store is like that. They always have at least 1-5 retards working at them. I know all the people in one auto parts store, and I know who has a clue and who doesn't. I ask for simple stuff from the retards and even then they can't look it up or tell me it doesn't exist. I then come back when the manager is there and tell the manager he has retards working for him and tell him what the problem was.

I refuse to go there for most of my stuff due to their staff being totally clueless 90+% of the time. Hell, the one guy couldn't even read a damn OBD2 code reader when it said right in front of him what code it was throwing. They need to hire some more competent/non wannabe car people (no offense bubba...you may be the one good worker that I have dealt with there)

Ya.. autozone does fucking fail... Trust me I unfortuneatly work there, I could rant for days...
However... I will say our comps only look up parts based on part numbers or vehicles by year, make, model, engine... I can't type in axle seal for ford 9" and have something pop up... and i'm not gonna sit and memorize every fucking part number for you pos mullet cars... That'd be like me going in to a parts store and asking for parts for my DA brake swap... anyone that doesn't know Hondas would be confused as fuck...
So here's a little tip... at least know what Year, make, model and engine that's in your car... pretty fucking easy... and if u swap something from another car, know the same for things for what car it came out of... it'd be much easier...

something as simple as a 9" rear there is no excuse. Anyone that has any car experience and is 18y/o should know a 9" would be in a 70s truck or something. Yes there are differences, but once you get one # for a 9" its pretty easy to find the right part. I just walk right into the back isles and get what i need, fuck the workers.
In fact, they tried to kick me out of a 'Zone in TX for doing that, so i told them what i needed, sat there for 10 min while they couldnt find it. I walked back and took it off the shelf i knew it was on in about 1 min. They never said another word -
Those retards behind the counter have limited tools. Some could care less about muscle cars and 9" rear ends, but could help about 98% of the rest of the customers because those customers know what their parts came from. When I worked at the auto parts store, I had retards come in the door and said they needed a part for the truck. Like I know what kind of truck you have. Or other retards would walk in and say they need gaskets for their chevy 350, but didn't have a clue what the year of their 350 and tried to tell me they were all the same. Just so you know, their are idiots on both sides of the counter, and there are some knowledgeable on both sides. It is hard for a parts guy to have knowledge of every thing dealing with 4X4s, drag cars, race cars, motor swapped hondas, acuras, nissans, mazdas, vws, chevys, fords, chryslers, ATVs, motorcyles, 3-wheelers, etc, etc. Give those guys a little bit of a break, and try to feed them answers to the best of their abilities. Its not like the old days.

I go to carquest on main. The guys there are older than god, know parts numbers better than their internet porn sites and I get the Lunde discount. easy decision for me.
On a side note: Jeff from moorhead muscatell has yet to fail to get me a part, even when it is not in his USDM parts catalog.

"...umm thank you for calling AutoZone, who are you holding for?"
now everyone who knows how bubba talks repeat that in your head..and who do you see lol....
"tell the misses that thats how you got the man and thats how you KEEP the man
words to live by from the wise one"

The problem with the parts guys is most places require you to have a clear driving record....and the people who know cars and there parts are usually dont have that because they are the ones who are out racing there car around TESTING the new part they just put on......Right? LOL

I doesn't matter if you know which vehicles had the 9 inch axle. You damn sure better know how to find out tho.
