Never shopped at autozone, and this just makes me happier they have not gotten a dime of my hard earned money.

Autozone has been a lot of knuckle-dragging retards for as long as I can remember. I'm not a fan of parts stores in general, but they are particularly bad.

Only in America does this **** happen... What a ******* shame.

i duno...it could go both ways. it sucks that the guy was fired but it also tells me that auto zone cares about their employees to an extent. they are willing to lose money to protect the safety of their associates. if their was a written policy in place and he broke it...termination is a reasonable action...even if it didnt involve a robbery.

and tell the truth, it was probably some punk *** kid who wanted to be a hero and had nothing in his head about the protection of vato zone.

or he really did think about his manager and did what he had to do.. ill give him benefit of the doubt. but then again if he had a gun threatening the manager, id dont him in for good if the shot presented itself.

It's really difficult to say how anyone would react? But i can say he reacted the way he was trained, right or wrong. This is just sad!! Shame on Autozone.
