i hope u kidding 
i don't even work on the counter anymore, i'm in corporate and i still go to 2-3 training seminars a month minimum, plus my ase testing, and i do in company training all the time
seen plenty of guys walk into the shop with the weirdest shit just looking for one bolt
Actually, they will hire any idiot that breaths. I work at Autozone and you really don't have to know jack shit to be hired. No training anyuting goes along with the job. It's also not worth it to them to pay extra to hire someone who knows anything. They expect the customer to know what they are doing and for us to retrieve the parts.
Besides, there is no way to look up the specs on the transmission bolt and remember, the guy your talking to is some douche getting 8/hr who wears an autozone uniform rather than walmart. So don't expect much out of the autozone/kregan/pepboys crew.

I've wasted a 1/4 tank today just trying to buy 12 bolts. I am not going back to the Napa at all tonight.
I think tomorrow I am going to load the engine into the back of the truck and drive it to the store and test fit every goddamned bolt they have in that store just to be an asshole.

kinda like the guy at vatozone who told me that a 34mm will work for all axle nuts from 32 to 36mm. i just stared at him and he went back and gave me the right size.
its all good though because i abuse their axle exchange policies.
