~SimpleSimon: I stopped today to recycle oil at the store in Littleton, CO. Employee Alred "you don't need my last name...Alfred is all you need to know" brusquely told me to move my truck from the back of the store where the recycle is..."move it to a parking place we have trucks that need to get in here...". I've had recent surgery and am unable to lift and carry the weight. My intention was to drop the basket of bottles and then return to the back door to accomplish the recycle. Alfred was not interested in any dialogue. Ironically an Advance Auto Parts truck pulled quite easily between Alfred and I during the interchange. No offer to help, no questions, just a brusque attitude. I won't be back to Advance Auto Parts.
