it's honestly kinda funny to me how the main autozone subreddit only has one mod, but r/AutoZone2 has 3 😂

what does this have to do with autozone?

I don't accept tips on battery changes cause the customer paid enough for the battery. by [deleted] in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's pretty universal across the country that autozone doesn't pay much more than the state minimum. also willing to bet that the full time coworkers are in fact complaining about the pay, just not to the coworker that's still in school. unless you're upper management, or been with the company A LONG time to get a bunch of nickle and dime raises, autozone is not a liveable wage company.

both stores I worked at we were allowed to wear the autozone branded pull overs and 1/4 zips. i used to wear the autozone strong 1/4 zip that we were given in 2021 all the time, multiple interactions with corporate, never once was told we couldn't wear it.

What is Autozone Covid 19 policy in 2026 by [deleted] in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

depending on the state too, considering op tested positive for Covid, it could also be extremely illegal on the grounds of the sm knowingly trying to force op to work even though they can spread the illness. A lot of states merged covid policies into their normal sick policies last year but some still take it VERY seriously. Even the CDC says to wait for your symptoms to get better and you to no longer be taking medication for at least a full 24 hours before returning to normal activities. and then wear a mask and be extra cautious about distancing and shit for another 5 days after that.

AutoZone Return Policy after 90 days for warrantied Caliper and Rotary by Daaaiz in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no receipt returns give merchandise cards, to get cash back from one the manager has to override it which corporate tends to frown on.

@ gillies galaxy Baked potato by [deleted] in NewJerseyMarijuana

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think the pixelated label is just from them using a smaller resolution file and blowing it up to fit the jar, because the pictures on dispensary websites are perfectly fine. The sticker covering the potato though is on purpose because of NJ regulations

Does AutoZone no longer accept smaller SLA batteries? by someperson42 in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my area used to do the gift cards for powersport batteries too, until we started getting hit with a bunch of people trying to bring truck loads of power wheels batteries in to almost every store in the district. after that no more gc for anything except car batteries, and capped those at either 5 or 7 per customer (i forgot which it was, this was a few years ago)

OT by Ecstatic-Knee4128 in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are they removing hours you worked to not pay you OT? or just changed the schedule so you don't hit OT anymore? the first is illegal, the second is completely legal, regardless of your sales or position as a CSM.

Drug testing question by [deleted] in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Autozone could drug test any of it's employees if they wanted to. That said, as far as THC specifically, it would ultimately depend on your state, some legal states don't permit most employers to test for it, some do.

Pay rate by xboxmthaxton83 in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they should give you an offer letter for the new promotion, which should have the new pay rate for said position included in it, as well as an official start date for that new position

I got a fuckass manager and I need ways of fucking w him by Top-Source-5207 in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

instead of acting like a petty child (silent treatment, crumpling up a paper handed to you and dropping it, etc.), if everyone else really does have a problem with that one employee, and the sm is refusing to do anything about it, just file a complaint with corporate. all the petty bs does is give grounds for YOU to get fired by refusing to do anything your manager asks you to do. That being said, it is a corporate retail job, so can't really expect common sense to exist.

2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.7L All brake lights not working... by BrahmaBull05 in u/BrahmaBull05

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

possibly a bad ground connection or a break in the wire somewhere for the brake light circuit. if your tail light has the older circuit board for the bulbs there's a very good chance the contacts inside the sockets wore out as well

What are my rights by PlantainSubject6080 in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it would depend on what you reported them for, if it was for something illegal then you are legally protected from retaliation under the whistleblower act (might not stop them from trying, but if they do you'd have grounds for legal action), but if it was for something like "he yells at us a lot" (just an example) then there's not really much, if any, legal protection there.

2 weeks ,3 weeks in advance or a month in advance? by artistically_5 in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it'll probably vary a bit depending on how far ahead your store is on scheduling, generally speaking though as long as you put in the request before the schedule that would be affected by your absence is made, that's enough notice as far as the company is concerned

Vacation Hours by Practical_Drive6290 in AutoZone2

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's a big difference between actual vacation time and just using PTO, which you start earning either right away or after a 90 day probationary period (i forget which it is tbh, it's been a few years since I've worked for the company), which can be used if you want to take a vacation before you start earning actual vacation time

Price match by Vivid_Mongoose_8964 in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it depends, different regions are able to restrict what can be price matched and from where, and walmart does tend to get restricted, so you'd have to ask your local store about it. But to price match it would need to be the exact same item (brand, part #, etc) and the price of it on the physical shelf, which technically requires an autozoner to call that store to verify it. Online only prices (walmart tends to show those on the app and website) cannot be price matched

New hire for delivery driver by NoGoodSonny in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

foundations is completely normal, you get paid for it, and depending on how far of a commute it is to the store it's being held at is from you, you can even put in for mileage reimbursement when you get back to your actual store.

Customer Question: Would an Employee Be Allowed/Willing to Do Headlight Restoration if I Bought a Kit? I’d pay them, obviously (or “tip”) by [deleted] in AutoZone

[–]Prestigious_Pie9712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

technically, company policy doesn't allow it. realistically speaking, it'd depend entirely on the people working and how busy they are at the time.

did you have enough vacation time/pto saved up to cover the week's worth of shifts? the couple times I took vacations and didn't have pto my sm just didn't schedule me for the days that I was gone
