My dad works for a tractor supply company. So I feel your pain a bit. But even that would be better than where I was.

I find it funny that you have NO IDEA what you are talking about.

Advance is their/our biggest competitor. Also if Checkers was owned by either, why on earth would the other two be trying to purchase Checkers who is in finacial trouble?

Food for thought.

I seen it on Advance's website a while back. It had all 3 places listed. I can't seem to find it now though. I mentioned this on another forum one time too and people told me I was wrong and I found the link and showed it to them

"CSK Auto Corporation is the parent company of CSK Auto, Inc., a specialty retailer in the automotive aftermarket. As of February 3, 2008 the Company operated 1,349 stores in 22 states under the brand names Checker Auto Parts, Schuck's Auto Supply, Kragen Auto Parts, and Murray's Discount Auto Stores."

http://www.cskauto.com/Company.aspx

Just because PartsAmerica lists them, doesn't mean they are all owned by each other. Perhaps this is how they cover the other 28 states?

Anyway, enough arguing... the humor is over. Oreillys is it's own place. As for it's competitors, I'll learn more when I actually start the job.

I wasn't arguing I was just showing why I said that.

I'm envious, I have the technical skills but I can't even draw stick figures. Good luck at the new place! Isn't it great having a job you don't mind going to?
