Dude ive been banned before...

I used to work at canadian tire here in Cold Lakd ab.. And it was my first week as a tire and lube guy... The mexican guy brought in the nissan altima and started to work on it and stuff.. I noticed a crack noise when he brought it in... Anyways he did the front tires and he said "damn that was hard work" told me he was going on break and told me to finish it up... Well i was 16 at the time and asked what needs to be done... He said to finish the rear tires and hurry up... so i did them... Brought the car out and the costumer picked it up and came back 10 minutes later saying that his front left tire came off in the parking lot... So they fired me and banned me cause the mexican blamed it on me and told the manager i was framing him.... :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I'll never go to Blackfoot Motorsports in Calgary, they are a bunch of dorks.

I was trading in my Foreman 500 FE (at the time I wanted a Bruteforce) and I told him I was interested in the 750 and the first thing the guy did was nod then tell me I was more suited for a KingQuad 450. I told him my criteria was twin cyl, IRS, big bore, diff-lock and the fact that I was up sizing from my five freaking hundred!!!

He told me I'd be happier on the KQ450. And nothing was going to convince the salesman otherwise. I told him to f*ck the KingQuad because I was upsizing and I wanted a twin. If he couldn't sell the Brute, Id stick with my 500.

Needless to say I went home with my Foreman..... Sold it privately, and my YFZ and now I got a Sportsman XP. Jay at Cycleworks Edmonton seemed to understand what I wanted better that the Blackfoot dorks. :beer:

I bought a $200 cordless drill from Canadian Tire, got it home plugged in the battery charger and nothing. Would not work, so i took it back explained what was going on and its all good, they gave me another one off the shelf. I get home plug in the charger and agian would not work!! Ok, take it back explain whats going on and that the day before i brought back another one. Sure not a problem they grab the last one off the shelf. I say ok how about you try it first cause maybe im a idoit and dont know how to use it. Sure enough he plugs it in and nothing. Can i just have my money back i say, yep not a problem and then he tells buddy (Take this drill back to the shelf!!) WTF. I say Really your putting that back on the shelf. Why whats the problem he asks. I reply Did we not just try that drill and it was NFG. His response Oh ya, ok ill tell him to take it off later. Well it will be awhile before i buy a power tool from Canadian Tire agian.

they have been pretty good to me. took back a largescrewdriver that i was using as a prybar. the lady asked "what were you doing with this" UHH screwdriving? got a new screwdriver...

also took back a pair of bolt cutters. i had 2 4 foot snipes on each handle of the bolt cutters. sure enough bent the handle. brought them back. and they didnt have the same model so they gave me the BIGGER pair no charge. which was what i was trying to accomplish in the first place LOL

also took back a CD deck i wired in wrong and it lit on fire. told the lady when i turned it on it started smoking....got a new one. old one is probly on the shelf though.

put 25 cents into there candy machine once and it stuck open and me and my buddie were filling our shirts pockets/bags whatever we could find.

i should be the one banned

I have had good luck at ct, bought one of those cheap 2way pro starts a few years back wired it all up didn't work. Took it back and got another one, but when they rang though the new one the cash register glitch and said i was to get $50 some dollars worth of ct money. funny thing was the girl didn't even question it just handed me the cash and sent me on my way. latter i found out the remote start didn't work cause the fuse was blown kinda funny anyway. Returned lots of stuff, but now they have been asking for receipts on life time warranty tools, like chit i am gonna have a receipt so there might be a argument soon.
