- GDGee DubAug 11, 20251.0I am reading all of these wonderful posts about customer service and I’m just in shock because my experience today really was terrible. I was walking around the store not sure where to find the battery for my car key fob. I come around the corner, still not finding it, and I see a worker looking for something on the shelf. I kindly said excuse me sir, I was trying to figure out where to look for a battery for my key fob. He sits there, it felt extremely awkward. I literally thought he didn’t hear me, after zero eye contact or even acknowledging my presence for what had to have been a good 15 seconds of silence, he says “I’m in the middle of something.” I looked at him, and although I myself had a terrible day at work, I know not to take it out on my guests, and I said never mind have a great day. It was so off putting. I don’t even like to post reviews. But this experience was just gross and quite frankly unacceptable. I think a simple exchange of eye contact, and saying I’m sorry I’m looking for something for another customer at the moment, and then I’ll be right with you, would have completely changed the narrative. Shame on that gentleman. Caucasian gentlemen with long hair past his shoulders. I have been here before in the past, but honestly after today, I will not be back to this specific location. I am not looking for anything, all I hope is that someone can have a heart to heart with that gentleman and inform him to work on his customer service skills.

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
