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.
