  • Oh yes. I worked retail for over a decade, and now I work in parts. The amount of people that can’t follow directions or read is mine boggling.

    I have one client whose purchasing department has one guy. Most of the time he cannot send a correct dollar amount on the purchase order, no matter how many times I tell him “hey, line 2 needs to be $146.76, you have it priced at $257.32.” he will send me an updated PO, but change a different items price and not the one I told him to change.

    We normally have to go back and forth 3-6 times. It’s been like this for YEARS. Dude just isn’t good with numbers and he is in charge of purchasing for a billion dollar company.
