Guys- Melody is a very nice lady and a good manager at WM, and a 2nd generation member. Her father was a member here, passed away. That's his 40th she's showing in her avatar, that is now hers. He was vetteseniorcit- hence she has added 'baby'. He was quite active here http://forums.corvetteforum.com/sear...rchid=19596870

Welcome to C4 Gen Melody- hope we can be of some help whenever you need it.

(background- was getting the old baldass tires removed off my wagon wheels on the C5 so I could retrieve my TPMS when one of the tire guys broke it trying to get the tire off. He was successful on the other 3, just one of those things). I was getting a bit of a runaround from the tech and the Service Manager, so I went walking the store and found Melody (Asst.Mgr) on an aisle working her butt off. She immediatly stopped what she was doing and wrapped her arms around the situation. Took care of it like a pro. ).
Now I feel bad....:o

Melody sounds like a very nice lady, and I'm sorry for your loss. She should feel like part of the family though. (We all take a little ribbing from time to time) and it's all in fun.

Welcome to C4 Land Melody.

Glad to see you're sticking around....we can be an obnoxious bunch at times....but deep down we are a loving family. Glad to have you be a part of it.

Your car is VERY sharp....saw it on the chrome wheel thread as well. Can you post up some more pics?

Does this mean someone took their corvette to Wal Mart to be worked on? I worked at Wal Mart for years, and frankly, I would NOT have them do ANYTHING on my vette!
