Default Woot! New Job!

Well, I went into a Powersports Honda dealership by me to get a new chain put on and upon hearing about a possible position opening up one thing led to the other and I got a job working the parts counter. Nothing glamorous, but it's a bit of a step up from Autozone. Anyways, I'm pretty excited. I might be taking this motorcycle enthusiast thing a bit far, but here's to living just once!

BTW, diggin the new smilies.

Congrats on the new job brother.

More money? and ah... now the important question - are we all getting deals on parts?

Yeah, it's a bit more money. Autozone doesn't give you anything in the ways of commission besides a pat on the back and letting you keep your job. :P

All CBRF members get free helmet mohawks with any purchase!

I applied at a dealership when I was unemployed and ironically met the dude that did get the job on a dating site... and he informed me they were really considering me.... he actually had a lot of experience though...

Yay I got a new job not long ago as well! Go us!! :-)

So far so good, I really feel like I've been treated some of the best ever at a new job. Still in the promo/grand opening phase.... so it's kinda hard to tell what it will actually be like. So far the owner and his wife have really gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome and the facility is really nice and clean and kinda state of the art to me. I look forward to being with the company for some time and if I ever leave the store I hope to transfer... So far I really like my co-workers too... One girl told me I'll be her go-to person cause I reminded her of two things she would've otherwise forgotten... And if the other girls get bent outta shape I try to reassure them everything is gonna be ok. :-)

New job and new boyfriend and I'm very happy! I hope you are happy too!
