Time to buy shares of Valvoline and RockAuto (if they ever get around to an IPO). :)



Look, they do have an opening in Marketing. Pays well but most of all you get to live on a hip isthmus. :)

I ordered more than a week ago, and according to the tracking numbers, they've been on a FedEx truck in my town for the past 5 days. Every morning it'll say "on vehicle for delivery"
Looks like FedEx liked those KYBs so much they literally put them on their truck. :p

I've got a video of a FedEx driver picking his nose knuckle-deep while carrying a box to my porch a few weeks ago, wearing no mask or gloves.
Oh, you gotta post that. :)


A few days later a FedEx driver stopped at the end of my driveway, and literally tossed my RockAuto box out of his door without getting out, leaving the box partially in the road.
Fortunately, this time you literally ordered shock absorbers. :)


(Hey, it's a FedEx joke. It might take you a long time to get it.)

Hey, @RockAuto, here's a marketing tip for you. As much as I've loved collecting those cool car refrigerator magnets you've been tossing into the box with each of my orders over the years, at this point I think I'll need to get another refrigerator to accommodate them all.

How about for every $500 of orders you throw in an actual wrench, elegantly embossed with the RockAuto logo? Over the course of the years of being a loyal RockAuto customer, you could collect a whole set. That's how I built up the screwdriver set I got from Texaco, which I still have.

I'd personally be partial to starting off with a 12-point 14mm offset box wrench, the kind Pilot owners need to remove that last gnarly driver's side bolt to change the out of round sway bar bushings in order to cure the common problem of front end clunking at low speeds.

Metric Offset Box Wrench Set, 8 Pc.

Easy to replace front sway bar bushings?


Hey, if you'd like to go all out and give away something really eye-catching and exclusively brand-memorable, how about cool RockAuto embossed horseshoe wrenches? Again, I'd start with a boxed 12-point 14mm one, for reasons stated above. :)

Although the Marketing position looks swell, I think I'll give it a pass. I had a colleague in Japan who was from Madison and while he was indeed pretty hip, in all the seven years we were there he never came out of the closet about being from an isthmus. Those were different times, I suppose. :)
