venting, auto parts stores

[texnician01]

yesterday I was looking for a carb kit for my truck a 69 1/2 ton with a 292 and single barrel holley replacement carb. I work at oreilly's and had found the kit but I didn't have the truck running yet to see if I needed it. I decided I did so I called my store and got our assistant manager. I told him that I needed this carb kit and he asked what were the casting #'s . I told him that there were no #'s on the carb but that it is listed as a replacement carb for my truck in the book. just look it up by application and it's right there. it's a model 1940. so then he looks some more and comes back saying he can't find an R-1940. I said I know cause that's a model number, the closest thing you might find is an h-1940 or h-1 1940. so he looks a little more and again I tell him to grab the book and look it up in the application section as a holley replacement. he comes back again with nothing. just a sec lemme try something else he says. keep in mind that I have already looked this up in the computer and it only lists a rochester carb not the holley. so I hear him typing and asking me all the stupid questions that the computer asks. then he comes back and says oh ya found it. $5.5x be here this afternoon. ok I'll believe him. I get all the way down there and guess what he got me the rochester kit. I told him 3 times that it was a holley and gave him everything but the page it was on and the part #. this guy is the assistant manager!!!!!! so I looked it back up and orderd the correct one within 30 seconds. What an idiot!!!!!!!! when I looked on the computer is says right there that the kit he ordered was for a rochester!! but the all knowing Jim is always right!!!!!!!!!! and the younger salesperson that is telling him EXACTLY where to look is wrong yet I have been through this problem before and have the carb sitting in front of me. MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at least I got the correct one on the way and I will be sure to ask for Jim when I call to see if the CORRECT one is there and I will be sure to tell him he ordered a ROCHESTER kit and I said HOLLEY and it was right where I told him it was!!!!!!

ok, im done for now.
