So a customer calls me on the phone....

NO, a FIB to a Illinoisan is a F-in Indiana Bastard! What do you expect from a freakin CHEESEHEAD? I'd rather be a FIB than a freakin CHEESEHEAD! Just sayin

And where are you located? When I click on 'The Real World' a map of my area comes up

The thread titles on forums show it's apparently much easier to ask than to use the Search key. Old Schoolers are more trial and error while the younger generation almost come off as entitled to take all that hard-earned, hands on experience without even batting an eye or offering anything for it in return.

So very true.

I can search and search before asking and still get stupid answers. Just go out there and do it.
I have also had the craziest questions asked.
Like what vehicle does this starter go in. Told him any Chrysler reduction 66 to 78 just pick one.
Finally one of the older guys went back and got me one. He did ask what it was going in.
Guess curiosity got the best of him.
When I told him a Chevy truck he just laughed. Yes poor kid would have never figured that out.
This transmission may have been one of those cases.

A friend owned a motorcycle shop.
A guy walks in, places a part on the counter.
"I need one of these".
"What is it?"
"Motorcycle part".
"What kind?".
"I dunno".
"What's it say on the tank?".
"***, gas or grass, nobody rides for free. My brother put it on there".
"You'll have to go to the dealer".
