Did you try PDQ in manville? my dad knows everyone there and they are all very nice people. just a thought.
Dude,
I had a few "informal" chats with the guys at the Bone in Hillsboro, but I'd prolly be looking to work @ the one in Raritan. One of the guys I used to work with at Kar Parts is a manager there, and if any thing he would prolly be my best shot at getting in. Plus I enjoyed working with him @ Kar Parts.

Funny thing about Poop Boys...I worked at the one in Piscataway when it was brand new, and I really enjoyed it. I got to guru a bunch of the younger guys, the pay wasn't too bad, and I was actually able to order some decent stuff. But that job went all to hell after a while, and when I got fed up with them treating me {and everyone else} like stock boys, I said "F-U".

PDQ is one of the 'lil stores that just seems to have the same people there forever. And to be honest I'd like to stay away from the wholesale biz. I tend to not mix well w/ arrogant shop apes who call up and act like they own your soul, and that you should be able to break the sound barrier getting them their parts. I had a couple run ins w/ some shop guys when I worked at Hapi, and it was fun when I was able to deliver their parts in person and have a 'lil face to face chat...
