Gotta have some damm thick skin to work in a mechanic shop. Dealerships are even better cause you can pick all the new salesmen too.

I didn't stop at the new guys when I worked for Mercedes Benz....I picked on the used car manager, other service writers and seasoned guys...but the new guys got it worse. The best one was the Asst. Svc manager...I had been there 2 months or less and there was a call for him...I got on the PA and said "Rick, your girlfriend is on line 2"....everyone looked at me with their mouths hanging open and I asked why...turns out he was cheating on his wife and it WAS his girlfriend calling I had no clue...

Lots of that going on in dealerships. Can't trust those places with your money, your car, or especially your wife. Lol

Its the general lack of character that stealerships attract. They must all use the same hiring questionnaire/background questions. lol

They're forecasting a 120 degree heat index for this weekend. Car show should be fun. Especially the burnout competition.

Need to fix something to eat, but don't really want to heat the house up.

Guess I'll throw some burgers and Conecuh on the grill.
