I know they don't get paid as much as say dentists, but is there any place where you get poorer service and more misinformation than tire shops? I once had a guy insisting that the first number referred to the height of the tire and the second to the width. HE SOLD TIRES FOR A LIVING!!! And, there is a certain big chain where you go in to get something like a flat fixed or a simple rotation. The clerk must fill in pages and pages of forms on the computer and then print out kilograms of paper in triplicate. Then you wait and wait, and when they are finally finished they have always managed to screw something up. They should be working for the government! Robobass
