"i spoke to joseph on 1/14/14 who says he is owner/manger does not have to give me his last name .during this whole process"
ANYONE giving an irate customer their last name is asking for trouble and possibly violence on the job and possibly at home.
One would be MORE than foolish to give out this information. I would suspect that Meineke's corporate offices can easily figure out who he is. You REALLY don't need to know this unless you're planning some of the mayhem I mentioned above.
I worked with the public for MANY years and would never consider giving some of those psychos my full name. There is NO good reason to do so under ANY circumstances.
