I’m always on the lookout for ways to break the ice in conversations today. Either that or ways to diffuse tense arguments with prop humor. Valentine’s Day is here which means there will be lots of lonely, toxic ladies looking for some love in seedy dive bars. And I just read a poll that I made up that says “85% of good looking women respond more to stupid pun humor than looks, money or height.”Luckily for me, while looking for another Tucson business to unnecessarily patronize, I stumbled across Copper State Bolt & Nut Co. off of the Freeway Industrial Loop. And on one of the reviews on there, I spotted a photo of a cartoonishly large nut and bolt. I figured I can get one of these bad boys to keep in my backpack in case the situation arises where I need to say something like “Sorry guys, things are getting a bit nutty in here. I gotta bolt”. I would pull it out and as people are laughing, I can get the heck out of there without dealing with awkward goodbyes. It would save me so much time and people I never want to talk to ever again wouldn’t bother me.So when I walked into Copper State Bolt and Nut Co. it was a big ol’ warehouse full of all sorts of manly hardware tools and fixer-upper-supplies and as soon as I saw the man with the white, handlebar mustache at the counter I let out a loud whistle and yelled “oh boy! THATS A LOTTA NUTS!”. I could tell he felt a little awkward because i’m sure people that frequent this place are already used to seeing a lot of nuts, but he gave a very gentle nod and then asked “what can we do for you today, sir?” I was like a kid in a candy store just thinkin’ about all of the punny situations I could get myself into. I said “howdy, good sir. I saw someone post a photo of a cartoonishly large nut and bolt online from this here business, and I was going to inquire into how I could come to possess said giant nut and bolt for mine own purposes”. He paused and then figured out what I was trying to ask. “A large diameter nut, huh?” I nodded. “So are you in steel frame construction? Aerospace? Gas?” “No sir, just bored and randy”.“Well son, if you’re looking for a one-off specialty item, stainless steel or superalloy with high tensile and shear strength, corrosion resistance and excellent high-temperature performance, it’s gonna cost you a pretty penny.” I said “speaking of which, did you know that pennies are actually made of zinc and coated with copper?” He just stared at me. “Well I thought you might be interested considering we’re in the copper state. Nevermind. How much we talkin? And don’t screw me over here buddy” I said with a slight chuckle. “With either domestic or import, at least $95 with a new customer discount”. I stood back and paused thinking about the fact I’m going to owe taxes this year. He started stroking his mustache. “Listen man, I just want to hit on a girl at a bar and when she refuses my advances, I wanna turn around and pull a giant prop and say “listen, I know you only wanna screw”. Can you help a brotha out?” He chuckled and pretended to talk on a walkie talkie. So I just went over to a nearby aisle and came back with a medium sized tube and said “here you go my man. I’ve decided to buy your caulk instead. Nice caulk selection.” He shook his head and let out a quiet cowboy laugh. Guess i’ll find my nuts on TEMU. 5 stars.

I bought some bolts that were too long and never use them. I went to return them for shorter one and Josh asked me if I had an account I told him no. Then Josh told me no returns on cash sales. I had my receipt where I just purchased them two days prior but no returns. I then had to buy 8 more bolts which costed $35. I have been doing business with copper state when they were on Prince Rd. It’s not just the $35 it a bad business practice. I will be ordering on line and recommend to my company and all other companies not to do business with them.

The salseman Tim was professional, friendly and efficient. Front counter workers need some customer service training. They weren't too unpleasant, just not super helpful and friendly
