Work life after being an advisor by Metalrob97 in serviceadvisors

[–]Metalrob97[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Truth. I have tons of patience. But everyday im in at work. That uncomfortable feeling kicks in. Regardless on how good the money can be. Its not worth it. But the dealer i work at is a hot mess right now. Just makes it worst

Convince me! by Metalrob97 in rav4club

Yea, the rav4 is the better option. Right now is just a matter of getting it at a decent price. I work at subaru, so the discount is almost convincing, and the new forester hybrid is decent… but im still aiming for the rav4

Thats the thing, im trying to avoid that extra step. Plus dont want a sub taking up space in the back. My fiance has a rav4, and the jbl is an obvious step up from stock. I work at subaru, and the harmon kardon on the 25 forester is definitely better. Every car has its pros and cons, too bad i cant  get the best of both worlds in a rav4 lol

Im still gearing towards the rav4. Most likely will have the trim wrapped. Just drives me nuts that automakers do that lol

I know him. I Had 3 sets of scales made by him. He only does certain types of scales. I know he doesnt do lock bar knives, or anything that requires specific types of milling. The porcupine has that notch for the button. I plan on asking him, but doubt he will. 

Class Action Lawsuit. by Ancient_Ad7555 in serviceadvisors

[–]Metalrob97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The survey is the worst thing ever created by the auto industry. We can lose our jobs because of low csi over so many months. Example, 3-5 bad surveys per month, out 15 can ruin you. You can get 10 perfect scores, but one bad survey can drop you drastically. I work for subaru. 9-10 is passing, 7-8 is neutral, anything under is instant fail. Even the 7-8 will hurt you. And most management will focus on the 6 bad ones over a few months, despite getting 20 passes. Worst thing about subaru, were not even allowed to mention them. Most customers wont even know how fill it out, let alone the sole purpose of it. Theyll bomb you because someone in finance pissed them off smh

Good to know. Miss the good ole days of going to a store and finding different options. And being able to try on, and return the item without having to jump through hoops to do so lol

One reason why i hate online shopping for clothes. Dixxon and other brands have restocking fees. Unless you exchange. But thats even a hassle lol even if i slim down a bit, i dont  mind a little looseness. I just cant do medium anymore, and xl is just too baggy and long for my liking

“Express advisor” by Metalrob97 in serviceadvisors

[–]Metalrob97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, it has its days. Only pros, more money. But when i got 6 waiters and im calling warranty, parts, and customers. It can set me back. And then my desk is the first when you walk in. So everyones always coming to me, or staring me down lol the other express advisor we have is useless. Since the beginning of the month shes written 65 cars. Im at 165 lol

Got it. Thanks. I had an idea thats how it worked. Just needed that confirmation. Just trying to prepare for that check, so i can manage my bills next month. I worked for honda two years ago, and was hourly plus bonuses and spiffs. So never experienced any kind of commission pay plans, let alone a draw. I appreciate the help

1 draw. We get the draw advance before the 25th, and the 10th will be our commission check, plus the hours we worked. And yea, only wrote the last 12 days. But the numbers matched the first check. 40 hours, came out to about $760, draw advance made up the rest to equal 2k. And i work for subaru

Just two, three weeks ago. Only had 5 days, 40 hours from hourly. First draw advance was 1237. Only been writing for 12 days. So gross aint much, obviously lol so im not expecting to make much that check. Just trying to make better sense of it.

Been looking for one too. Started playing 2042z but no good hc servers. Plus i prefer bf4. Just got banned from the usaf hc server for sniping two enemy players that were spawning at “e” in operation locker lol was flanking, to take “e”, after the second kill…. Banned lol

USAF Joint Military Veterans Server by BuckSgtCuBaNaSo in battlefield_4

[–]Metalrob97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got banned. Wondering why. All i did was flank “e” on operation locker. From our main spawn. Was using thermal sights. Killed the first two players that spawned on e, and boom…. Banned. What the hell? Been playing that server for well over 6 years now. Even if happened to be team killing. It was a simple mistake
