    Hopefully the little guy will hang in there. Being a small business owner, I do try to support the other little guys.
    Besides just taking care of the home team, I get so frustrated dealing with the jack-holes that work at the chain stores. Yes, I do appreciate that the young man has a job, but I think if it wasn't there it would be McD's or Wally world. No clue about cars! My local little guy, is an actual car guy. Still has his mid 60s GTO he bought new. Can offer advise, knows what you are talking about when you have a question, etc. Prices are quite competitive, but worth the pennies on the few other items. Three cheers for Rich Chambers at Chambers Auto!!!:drink: Sorry, not affiliated, but I really am happy to have them close to me (less than 5 miles)

    big chain places do not want any one with a brain because then they would to pay more than the minimal wages plus those big chain out fits think they can train any one to be a parts/sales person.
    after the last year at work and going through some many new guys/gals. if they don't have brain in the first place ,then there no learning going to happen.:banghead3:



    then you have the young kids, that can't take the responssiablly for what they do. they have to blame other people for there own stupidy!
