<VV> "Jobber"?

[henry kaczmarek]

Bill
Jobber---in the vernacular of the auto parts world has more than one 
definition.

An Independent Parts house usually still carries one line of "hard 
Parts"---Alt's, AC compressors, starters, etc.   So if an independent 
carries say, Carquest Parts but is not a franchisee, he is known as a 
"jobber".

Many parts houses consider their commercial accounts---the repair shops, 
dealerships etc that they service outside their through thru the door retail 
business is their "jobber" business.

People that are independent distributors of Amsoil and other such products 
are known as "jobbers for Amsoil".

That should very well muck it up for everyone.
