Default Compressor oil

Where do I put the oil into my Compressor? In the suction side or discharge side? Or am I completely off base? This is on a '07 Caliber SXT 2.0 4 cyl. NEVER DONE a/c before so I am kinda lost here. Any info would be appreciated...

It can only go in one place. The low side port. Why are you adding oil?

I'd let them do the filling of oil then since you admit you don't know what you are doing.
