Dealers and parts houses share the blame. Folks who sell them the computer software tell the business owners that their software is so simple to run, they can justify the software expense by getting rid of experienced parts counter people and hiring minimum-wage dopers off the street.

But I understand how the game is played, and customer service is only measured by what's tracked on CSI scores, rather than how many customers you run off.
Because the customer you ran off doesn't get a survey to fill out.
