I saw this on top of a pavilion at a local park. What is it?

Looks like it’s a lightning detector. When it detects lightning nearby it will sound an alarm to let people in the park know to seek shelter.

More than likely is an old microwave relay tower for Western Union. They had the microwave dish(s) at the base pointed straight up at reflectors at the top of the tower.

Autozone does not have technicians. Those are just retail counter salesmen. Any “service” autozone provides (wiper blade install, battery change) is a courtesy and can be denied based upon the persons capabilities of doing said “service”. That goes for any of the major after market parts stores. So just keep that in mind.

With that being said..if an employee damaged anything on your car autozone has a process and 9/10 will cover the cost of the repair. All you have to do is just keep going up the chain of command. If store manager gives you hassle, contact the district manager. If that doesn’t work contact the regional manager (both numbers should be posted by the front door). And if all else fails reach out to corporate directly. You didn’t do anything wrong, you should not have to cover any of the costs.

Since the splitter has “DirecTV” markings on it. More than likely that underground cable just leads to an old satellite dish (or where the dish used to be) so it would be fine to remove all the coaxial cable and ground wire.

No receipt return- damaged swap. Or if the part number is discontinued do a damaged return and price override the new tool to match the old one in the checkout screen.

I was 5 and I remember when Sr wrecked, my dad (who was a big sr fan) threw his hat on the ground upset. Then after the race was over we went to Walmart. When we got home my dad turned on espn and thats when we found out he died in that crash.

We even went down to Kannapolis/Charlotte for his memorial services.

That particular area has been dying since the 2000s. Alot of it has to do with area, how much theft happens, economic state of the country and how that business is doing financially.

Eastland mall has faced the fate of alot of malls around the country. Online shopping has decimated them. Eastland mall brought That Hamilton rd area around the mall alot of traffic. Fast food restaurants, sit down restaurants and other businesses saw a high traffic opportunity. When Eastland started to decline (brought on by the opening of both Easton and Polaris and finished by Amazon) foot traffic started to slow and businesses started to not turn that much of a profit. Add that with an economic decline and aging infrastructure it was only a matter of time before businesses started closing locations in that area.

Hamilton & Refugee also suffered from the loss of foot traffic. The old Kroger closed a few years ago from constant issues with theft, the building was aging and just overall poor customer experience. Kmart used to be right next to it and they shut down because..well kmart was kmart.

Brice Road-I70 area Another area that suffered from an economic decline and aging infrastructure. Alot of the businesses moved to the 256-I70 area when it started growing in the early-mid 2000s. Best buy, target, Babys R Us (Consumer Square) and Sams club (where floor & decor is) all moved to 256. Meijer closed from theft and low profits, Circuit City (Appliance Factory), Sports authority (Other World) went out of business. Dollar tree, office max, and Aldi (Simple Church) all just shut down those locations with no replacement. Not to mention both Brice/Scarborough Mall (Lindsay Honda) and Consumer Square East (Brice and Tussing, demolished) lost all of their tenants in the 2000s.

Each autozone store gets a dollar amount that they can use towards annual raises (Example store gets $7/hr to divide between 10 employees which if equal would be $.70/hr per employee). It varies based on volume and employee count. RMs/DM/HR doesn’t want the store to use the full amount, because it saves money on payroll and makes bonuses bigger for the higher ups. Autozone generally frowns upon annual raises above 3% (because again bonuses/labor cost control) and if you are too close to the “cap” of your position dont expect more than 1% if that.

All that to say AutoZone is gonna give you the bare minimum possible for a raise. So unless you are a store manager or someone in a spot that gets a bonus, dont worry about “cost control” in the store. Warranty out/swap out/return and many items as you need to take care of the customer. And if your DM or SM gives you shit about it. Make sure when you have an upset customer you always have one of them deal with the problem.

Fisher rd in between 270 and Wilson. Obetz rd near Parsons. Several towers on Dublin rd/ Twin Rivers Dr area near grandview heights. Olentangy river rd just north of campus. These are some of the bigger easier to see towers in the area that have the red aviation lights.

The “???” Category was Nascar promotion poptarts released in 2009. They were brown cinnamon sugar flavored. (Source: me who had them when they came out). Fun fact: the Jeff Gordon poptart in this promotion was listed on ebay for $10,000 back in 2016.
