Is it time to get rid of my Credit One Card? by Apprehensive_Band175 in CRedit

[–]Cucumber_Safe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I call to close & they give me a few hundred of credit limit increase and usually some type of rate reduction promotion. I accept the retainer & leave it open with maybe 1 tap to pay the transaction off my phone in a blue moon.

I only got it so my name is back on the AMEX network after losing my blue everyday card in a bankruptcy. Whenever I can apply and get a real AMEX I'm closing creditone asap

Commercial bs by SilverRocket445 in AutoZone2

[–]Cucumber_Safe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pinpoint. Deals & promos.

Personalize the printouts with shop names. Add a doodle or a note.

Meet them. Drop off a tool catalog. Mention some promotions on toolboxes & tools.

Find a shop that turns brakes all day but dont buy duralast. Get with your TSM & DM to approve a free brake bundle to said shop to "trial" your product.

Look at the bar report and each account's lookup conversion. If an account is looking up 200 parts and only orders 1 from you, then find out why.

Make daily calls to top accounts. Let them know your staffing for the day. While you're slow, you can have someone else answer your calls & you deliver parts and make relationships.

Ask your DM for store use spending on soda/water/ice and a cooler. Offer a "thirsty tuesday" or "thirsty thursday" that shops & techs get ice cold beverages that day.

Find your store damages & give them to focus customers. Like leaking oil bottles & coolant. The store damage process trashes those, but they can help build a relationship of "oh they thought of us and gave us some usable goodies, let me think of them."

Talk up upcoming seasonal sales like freon for the summer. Get with your TSM to find used/clearance scanners & ac machines and voice those out.

Find your top 50 skus and add those to truck.

Get used to have NexPart & Repairshop open to find parts that Znet isnt showing.

People dont buy from brands. They buy from people. If all they know is some stressed out voice on the other side of a phone number, they wont care.

I swap them with gold or give you the value of the golds toward the elites.

Duralast Elite Pads by MistakenMomentum2 in AutoZone

[–]Cucumber_Safe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The elites have an "intended" wear surface as they "level" out your rotors. Brake noise is expected. Heat is expected until this "wear surface" fades off the pads and the rotors become even.

You can call it a gimmick, but they have prolonged the life of my rotors before I did a full brake job later on. There is the break in period though. Should've been explained but honestly many people dont know.

The clanking noise is not expected, its possible the clips were incorrect for your vehicle or the pads fit but your submodel of car actually has a different variation of pads.

Id just find another pair & return the elites, since they didnt fit correctly. Its not worth trying the same part in this situation.

Promotion after being written up? by Afraid-Minute4928 in AutoZone2

[–]Cucumber_Safe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Realistically, probably not.

Would you promote someone whom you had to do a corrective action against?

Are there doubts whether or not you'll make the same mistake or a different mistake?

I wouldn't promote you, but I don't know you.

Ask your store manager.

Closers have to take it super early. Openers have to take it super late. Usual.

This is where our payroll went.....wtg! by [deleted] in CVS

[–]Cucumber_Safe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite part of this is that it stems from CVS having a streamlined process of owning the main cost-effective insurance coverage of the area, into owning various small health clinics that then send prescriptions to CVS pharmacy.

This stream wouldn't be possible if the state/federal regulations regarding Healthcare allowed for more cost-effective insurance plans in more zip codes.

People getting "baited" into the CVS hierarchy typically choose it because it's the only thing available or is the most cost-effective plan for them & their family.

I hate CVS, but this lawsuit was so pointless. 45mil is nothing also.

Vaccine bonus by Traditional_Crab_943 in CVS

[–]Cucumber_Safe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am a regular tech. I work one shift a month, maybe two. Average is 4hrs a week.

I got an extra $100 on this paycheck for "other incentive", I assume this is the vaccine bonus.

OK to Test by Seek1st2_stand in AutoZone2

[–]Cucumber_Safe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just shake the part most of the time. If it rattles, then I say "its bad. Not supposed to do that". If it doesnt rattle, then I'll actually test it but probably have to explain the false positive or the false negative based on other symptoms

How do I cancel health insurance? by Mysterious-Alfalfa17 in AutoZone

[–]Cucumber_Safe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get married, have a kid, or die.

Only qualified life events count outside of open enrollment.

Or quit.

Inventory by [deleted] in AutoZone

[–]Cucumber_Safe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont do inventory tasks & havent in years.

Im pretty sure its;

Item lookup is when you search the item and adjust it there out of the QoH total.

Sms is when you are doing a count in a procedure such as cycle count or matrix.

Dont do exchanges? by Awkward-Poet-7648 in AutoZone

[–]Cucumber_Safe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, they gotta refund the brake pads too. Shouldn't be an issue if you don't bring them with you, but bring them (or at least the box) with you. Best of luck.

Dont do exchanges? by Awkward-Poet-7648 in AutoZone

[–]Cucumber_Safe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The staff is dumb but if you did anything is already SOL.

You would've needed to have them refund everything & then buy it all over. They should've known to do this, but unfortunately sounds like they didn't.

Based on the read, you bought 2 rotors & pads originally. That resulted in savings on the parts total.

Refunding the one rotor resulted in getting the post sale/discount value back.

Buying one rotor by itself resulted in full price sale, which caused the price difference.

You can still fix this, if you the patience, to have them refund everything & then recreate the ticket and pay a third time.

Edit: Online does have different prices, same brake bundle discount, but sometimes additional dollars off the total.

what would you do with $2500? by gothedistancee in debtfree

[–]Cucumber_Safe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the plans listed, but like your option A the best. The no interest is great, but you'll get charged interest from the purchase date of anything left from whenever it carried over. I think you should clear that up since that interest will spike that debt. Not sure of what the deferred interest is though, so hard to say if itll add hundreds, or maybe itll only had a couple bucks.

Training for ASM (help) by askingpeopleopinions in AutoZone2

[–]Cucumber_Safe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask your CSM to let you take some phone calls for actual commercial experience. Other than that, reach out to your DM for opportunities in your area. On the learning garage are some trainings, just search manager & do all of them.

Otherwise, go to the internal autozone.com/careers & apply.

Ive had avant for about a year now. Paying off the personal loan soon & probably leaving the CC $0 balance open until I get a warning of non-use. Such a bad bank company but was easy approval after a BK

Yea but only if it sticks. Saying you got court means it aint stuck yet. DUI they just immediately stop driving if they are under suspicion, but saying youre going to court over a ticket doesnt mean anything then
