  • I wonder if he owns a Che Guevara T shirt?

    Well this is my first post here, so I'll give you a little background. I work for one of the largest auto parts suppliers in Canada. Although we only exist in BC we have about 85 stores throughout the province. Anyways heres something that happened a couple years back when I was pretty new on the counter and it stuck with me.

    Me= guess who
    CG= crazy guy

    Me- (answers phone)

    CG- "I have a question about this oil filter you guys sold me"

    Me- "Okay what seems to be the problem?"

    CG- "It's smaller than the one that F**m used to make"

    Me- "Is it the same part number as the old one?"

    CG- "Yeah they're making them smaller now this is BullS#$t!"

    Me- "That sometimes happens sir as the filter companies often refine their designs
    on some of the oil filters because they feel they can achieve the same results with a smaller filter"

    CG- "Thats a load of crap! it's smaller, it can't filter like the old one, listen here son the revolution is coming and I'm going to be on the front line" *click*

    Me-

    Well I wonder how that revolution worked out for him. Probably the strangest phone call I've ever received to date.

    i think he meant to say "the revolution is coming and you'll be the first against the wall"

    then again leave it to a customer to line up 19th century for a revolution.

      And it's somehow your responsibility that the filter manufacturer changed how he does things?

      They make my brain bleed.

          well you know, we all want to change the world"

            You know all the causes we used to fight for? Religion, politics, freedom, resources...

            Forget 'em all!

            The new cause is OIL FILTERS!

                I wonder if the guy also believes that black helicopters from the US are going to invade Canada

                  This guy must now reenact the classic Simpons blackboard scene, writing "I will not instigate revolution." 1000 times.

                      GORGEOUS.

                      The Canadian automotive industry will be turned upon its ear by this mighty crusader, for sure.
                      Saving the planet and everything on it is certainly a daunting task; but see, push has come to shove...Let's roll.
