Went through there to get a quart of oil. Went to the register and Jorge was assisting a cust. With another couple waiting to check out. Another employee was stocking the retail floor while Roy stood there and watched while the first cust was bringing truck struts back in as they were the incorrect units for his truck. Cust asked Roy were to set them he pointed to a rolling cart that already had a strut out of the box. Roy never lifted or even made an effort to assist the cust. Then the gentleman that was stocking had to put down what he was doing to come and check me out while Jorge was assisting the couple in front of me. I'm not sure what purpose that Roy was even there. You're in a position of customer service and should be there to help not just to watch.

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.
