talking about compression fittings and auto part stores. i went into autozone a couple months ago to buy a compression fitting. (dont worry i didnt need it for brakes or anything car related for that matter). the guy at the counter had no clue what a compression fitting was. he kept insisting that he had to look it up in his computer and that his computer didnt show anything for compression fittings. the guy thought it was some sort of tool that was used to adjust the pistons or the compression ratio in an engine. at that point i left because it wasnt worth dealing with such a moron and went down the street to advance auto. found the compression fitting i needed on a shelf brought it to the counter. where i had a problem with the guy at the register. he demanded to know what i planned on using the compression fitting for and wouldnt ring it up until i told him. sense it was non of his buisness what i was going to use it for i asked to see his manager and his manager gave me a hard time about it as well. so instead of walking down the street to an auto part store i ended up driving 10 miles to home depot to get the compression fitting where i wasnt asked any stupid questions and where people actualy knew what things were and what they were for.

moral of my story is. if people at auto part stores dont know what they are selling or refuse to sell them. then why on earth do they have them in the store's ? it just doesnt make any sense
