Auto Bone is REALLY pizzing me off!
 
I went into the local Auto Bone a couple of weeks ago, and found out the place is being run by a guy I used to work with @ Car Parts back in the 90s. I complained to him how I would really like to get back in the biz, but that after putting in multiple applications @ The Bone they never got back to me. Well, he tells me to apply on line, and to use his name as a
referral. So, I go home and do it. Now it has been over 2 weeks, and when I look up my application it says that it is "under review." What's there to review? You got a guy with over 20 years experience, and the backing of the store's manager. They shoulda been calling me back the next friggin' day! :-x Auto Bone sux azz BIG TIME!!!:evil:

...Should have went to the SAC. Instant proccessing on line.

Thats because the mere fact that you know the difference between a brake rotor and a dounut makes you automaticly over qualified.

I shed a tear for Car Parts every time I walk into that place. AutoZone sucks. What sucks worse is that NAPA is the only other game in town and they are closed too much on weekends.

bubba428 05-03-2007 02:53 PM

69. I don’t enjoy using guns. true/false

I have all the stuff people want. But every time I try to post about it, it gets locked, deleted and I get yelled at.
BTW, Sears has lowest prices on Eibach springs over Summit...just an FYI.

I had some of the best times in my life working at Car Parts. I was a part timer who was pretty much working full time, and I learned A LOT while working there. Plus it was like a social club...after hours the beer would flow, the hot rod books would come out, and the bench racing would last long into the night...8-)
