Well my manager finally pulled the straw.

Long story short:The dealership that I worked at was basically allowing a bunch of incredibly unprofessional actions to take place and then today I found out that they gave $300 bucks that was supposed to go to me to somebody else.

No biggie just gotta find another job.

I would raise in carnal hell about that $300. That's 3/4 of a weekly paycheck for me. Sorry to hear. Dealerships are scandalous places at times unfortunately.

Really acculmination of things but basically the enviornment just wasn't conducive of making any money. I wasn't going to have a paycheck this week because I couldn't get a single car out in the last two weeks and so I was really counting on this money and then when I found out that I was basically lied to and that my money probably ended up in someone else's pocket I quit.

Thanks man. I was going to but to be completely honest I'm just not with all the hell raising any more. No to mention that people that worked there warned me that stuff like this would probably happen.

I do but I'm really trying not to do it. Even though the money is good I absolutely hated working at this place that already said I could come back. I never leave one job without having options.

Idealy? Gonna sound stupid but if I can get a job at another dealership with the same probationary pay period as the one I just left from that would be :goodjob: . Cause then I can still make some good money and have a guaranteed check. I'm only gonnna be working until I go back to school which is only like another month. Otherwise I'm probably going to take my old job back waiting tables at a restraunt in fayetteville

Dude 90% of dealerships are like that. I am guessing you sold cars? Car sales is the most crooked ****ing job ever. I know drug dealers I trust more than car salesmen. I have heard a sales douche bragging about how he "dinged" some couple on thier deal for a few thousand and he is a youth minister on the side.

Yeah, you are right. I do forget about the average age on IA (not sure how I can given many of the conversations/topics displayed).

Thanks for the check up. :)
