im leaving

Going to work in about 10 minutes. Im gonna quit, rollin out my tools tonight. Ive already got a job lined up with toyota. I LOVE working for toyota. They treat the techs so well and really help to make things move smoother. Im looking forward to another tour of duty with toyota.

I called the BAR and apparently they have been watching this dealer for quite sometime. The guy I spoke with told me that its best for me to get out of there ASAP in regards to my future in the feild.

I wish the best to you carguy! Import dealers almost always pay the best because they are more "hard up" to find good techs!

The "higher up" you go with the import make, the higher your pay check!

Example: Hyundai pays OK, Honda pays better, Porsche pays very well, Ferrari will make you a rich man!

Just my take on it, I can not speak from experience.

Good luck on the new job!

I know it's a good feeling to leave a place you just F***ING hate.

Just keep being the best tech you can, reguardless of the make.

Thanks guys. I feel weird calling myself a tech because I only have a 609. Im really a low end tech, high end lube boy (no not for those certian kinds of movies lol). Im dying for that time of year that the ASE's are given, why only twice a year...I think thats silly.
