    I was just informed that not all parts-counter-professionals (counterpros) are sasquatches, that some might be monkeys or even homo-sapiens.... who knew?
    Doing it all wrong since 1966

    That is correct, they are usually varying degrees of sasquatchian.
    I'm probably wrong

      it is a fact that not all are Sasquatches...some are from various primate families but others are relatives of the bovine and rodentia families.....

        I left my wallet at the O'Reilly's last week (dropped outta my hand while I was messing with the bag) and the gal behind the counter saved it for me. I feel like an idiot now for only rewarding her $20.

            Thanks, Bob, for making me all questioning and suspicious now and otherwise ruining my faith in humanity and young women. Now I'll have to do that.

            But hey, there was like $500 cash in it (we were about to head out for a weekend) that she surely could've used and it was all there when I got it back.

                I checked mine today, and as much as I hate it, that stupid work thing is good for making happy bank account.

                Oh - you mean the people ripping off your cards. I like to believe there are some decent folks in the world still. Sometimes we are rewarded for keeping the faith.

                That'd be one hell of a conniving cow though - leave the 500 bones there, and slowly tap the credit cards over time for thousands! Most thiefs don't have that kind of foresight. The others have a name... STOCK BROKER!

                j/k. I kid.

                /edit

                Oh ... Loren? People who don't F* you over, but instead, take care of you don't care about the 20.00 so much as you gave it... it's a token gesture on your part to show your appreciation, and a good person who goes home feeling good about themselves and life. It will still buy a twelve pack and tacos, which any good parts person should consider a pretty damn good night! I know I would have when I was working a parts counter... I've been able to save some people from bad situations before, and been rewarded for it. It was never about the money, it has always been a greater reward to just be recognized for being decent. I never expect anything back so even an "attaboy" goes for eternity. Likewise, I've been saved from my own dumbassery more than once and it's just a good feeling to know not everyone is out to stick it to you.
