Might have found a store with staff more useless than Bunnings. SuperCheap Auto.
Need new headlight globes. Take them out, bring them in, ask the people there for some help. Bloke grabs a couple of the shelf and rings them up. I walk to my car, look at the box and the fitting looks wrong. Sure enough, it’s the wrong type. I go back in and ask to exchange and he’s trying to tell me they’re the right ones.
I take one out of the box put it against one of my old ones, similar, but definitely not the same. He mumbles something like “I should have been more specific”
Mate, how much more fucking specific do you want?
He tries to help me again, and I kind of shoo him away, grab the right globes, swap them and job done.
I feel it’s my fault for not grabbing them myself to begin with instead of asking for help.
I bought headlight globes at SuperCheap last year. They were supposed to be extra long lasting, which turned out to only be two months. They also didn’t seem to be as bright as they should have been. I got more expensive Phillips ones sourced from somewhere else to replace them and was much happier, they were brighter and still going strong when I traded the car in.

Hope these last a bit longer. Went through a booze bus yesterday and the cop told me one of my headlights is out. No ticket, but I’m taking 0 chances.
aah, the woman in a tech shop experience
I know it well
I was ready to throttle the bloke.
