So I pulled into the store at 7:28 Tuesday morning because I read the hours were 7:30 to 9pm. I didn’t want to miss more work than necessary to get some bulbs for the piece of equipment at work. So does the store open at 7:30 or is that the time the worker goes to work? He actually got to the store at 7:33 and went through the door and let me in behind him. He informed me that it would be several more minutes before he could wait on me. He had to clock in and count the money in the drawer. Should he do this before the store opens at 7:30? So either his schedule needs to start at 7:00 or the store needs to open at 7:45. No knowledge of automobiles unless he can read a number off a tailight bulb. Good luck with these youngsters today clocking in early or giving the company a few extra minutes of their time!

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.
