"Run, don't walk, AWAY from the service center at this location. I'm stunned at how little they knew about fixing a keyboard on a Dell laptop. \n\nIt took them a week to misdiagnose the problem. Then I took it back to them again and they decided it would take another week to totally replace to keyboard. \n\nNot wanting to wait another week, I went to Geek Squad. They looked at the computer, typed in a solution to fix an apparently "well known" glitch in Windows and solved my keyboard issues. Took two minutes and they didn't even charge me. GEEK SQUAD ROCKS!!!"

"Bought 4 new tires -- lug nut broken during install, two tires went flat within days . Had to change them myself. Called to schedule a fix. Told "no appt needed = bring in and fix would be ASAP". Took in and after being told a 45 min wait - after 1 1/2 hours told they meant to say 45 min after brought into bay(lie) . Then said that all scheduled appt. would come first and I was lying about prior call re:ASAP info. Manager said he couldn't put me first - when asked why = " because I don't want too".Went to store's customer service - another auto dept mgr was called . Said I was lying about ASAP call,the managers "don't want to" comment and lug nut breakage. I'm 74 and in ill health, have no car now, and couldn't wait an indefinite time (hours). Both mgrs were condescending and used same ploy of "I won't deal with you because of bad attitude " even during normal conversation."

"This place is always crazy busy. I typically stop into this supercenter when out in Reynoldsburg and make it a Sam's Club/Walmart Combo trip. I always find this lot challenging for parking and navigating around. I recommend just grabbing a spot and walking up. Typical Walmart and they keep this location decently stocked."
The word "best" is an adjective, and adjectives do not take articles by themselves. Because the noun car is modified by the superlative adjective best, and because this makes the noun car definite in this context, we use the. It is best not to do something. Here, we have the adjective best, but this adjective is attached to no noun.
In your context, the best relates to {something}, whereas best relates to a course of action. Plastic, wood, or metal container? What was the best choice for this purpose? Plastic, wood, or metal container? What was best to choose for this purpose? Either is acceptable, and the practical meaning is the same, but their referents, implicit not explicit, are different.
I mean here "You are the best at tennis" "and "you are best at tennis", "choose the book you like the best or best" both of them can have different meanings but "most" and another adverb in a standalone sentence has a completely different meaning.
"Which one is the best" is obviously a question format, so it makes sense that " which one the best is " should be the correct form. This is very good instinct, and you could even argue that the grammar is good, but at best it's unnatural.
So, " It is the best ever " means it's the best of all time, up to the present. " It was the best ever " means either it was the best up to that point in time, and a better one may have happened since then, or it includes up to the present.
Both sentences could mean the same thing, however I like you best. I like chocolate best, better than anything else can be used when what one is choosing from is not specified I like you the best. Between chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, I like vanilla the best can be used when choosing from some choices.
It's best that he bought it yesterday. or It's good that he bought it yesterday. 2a has a quite different meaning, implying that what is being approved of is not that the purchase be made, but that he is the one to make it. 3 "It's best (if) he (not) buy it tomorrow." is not a subjunctive form, and some options do not work well.
Your example already shows how to use "best" as an adverb. It is also a superlative, like "greatest", or "highest", so just as you would use it as an adjective to show that something is the ultimate example of it's kind when used as an adverb you do so to indicate that the adjective it precedes is to the highest degree possible. In your example "experienced" is the past tense of the verb to ...
In one post, a commenter maintained that the phrases "I did my best" and "I did the best I could" don't mean quite the same thing. If it is true, what is the fine difference between the two?
