I also avoid the self check outs when I can, a matter of principle. I don't want any of the Clerks to be replaced by a machine.
besides they don't pay me to work or give me a discount to do someone's job.

Well,
Today got some nice one that happened to me haha. On a Facebook group i am part of, someone in the states does a posts that goes something like this: ''Planning a road trip to Nova Scotia this winter, i will need good winter tires in 19'' to go there, plus I'll bring chains just in case. what kind of tires do you recommend?''
So I'm like: ''I'm from New-Brunswick just next door, try such and such make of tires. BEWARE of our winters with that car, i'd advise that you double check the long term weather before leaving Maryland. ''
Next thing you know, buddy is adding me on Facebook, starts to questions regarding the weather, tires, what to plan for, where he should go. He's already planning for the Cabot trail, so he's good there (and i do not know of any other good winter driving spot anyways). But my advises were more because I've read into that group of one of his other road trip with his car.
I do have raise my hat to that gentlemen. I DID warn him about the huge amount of brine on the roads in the winter, PLUS the usual salt ... he doesn't care and will wash the car coming home (literally what he answered
)
Road trip time: mid-Late February ..... CAR: FERRARI F430 CHALLENGE STRADALE

Tell him to fly in and rent an AWD Car with Winter tires. Or trade Ferrari for an AWD Porsche 911 with performance Winter tires

Honestly, even tho it's promoted, I still believe it shouldn't be done. But then again, I do raise my hat to the fact the guy actually do with this car what it's designed to do ... DRIVE
Not where it should, but it's probably a ''money no object kinda guy''... must be nice lol
that nice Italian road is a lot different than our pothole infested roads, covered in snow.
There places on that mountain where people die every year, mostly due to driving to fast
but if you can't stop the fall kills you just the same.
That snow on the mountain is not certain times of the year, its winter.
Also not much is open up there in winter, so long day of all goes well.
If he has money, rent a luxury SUV and enjoy.

And if there are any mechanical issues with his car, the nearest Authorized Ferrari Dealership is in Montreal. And if he has to replace one of his Run Flat tires on the Trail, there will be a 2 week wait for it.
