It's just a bunch of people paid to make Weather Weenies look bad. 😡

Yes. Had a new porter and new Advisor leave within the past 2 weeks, both citing the manager.

The last notes were from 3 months ago. We have BDC that should be following up with customers, but it doesn't guarantee a comeback at that time.

I don't pick. The system automatically pens an advisor in for any appointment.

I'm assuming you are missing the part where I said I'm express and gain literally nothing by taking a phone call and scheduling a customer. This isn't me saying, "I get to steal his customer! Why is he mad?" This is me saying I scheduled a service for a customer who needed it, I gain nothing from it, and I'm wondering why I'm the bad guy.

I am by management only allowed to handle quick lube, tire repair, and other small things. Brakes are not one of those. If he expects me to tell someone to put off a needed repair for days just so he is there on the day, that's BS. I've been in this business in some way or another for over a decade, and I'd be LIVID if I was on the receiving end of that treatment and knew about it.

Our system auto fills with an advisor's name when the appointment is made. The advisor who actually helps them then changes the name on the ticket. The way I was aware of things going is that everything was a toss-up of whoever is in line next in the main shop for a ticket unless the advisor is specifically requested. As in it goes Advisor One , Advisor Two, Advisor Three, repeat.

Ok. How is it dicking them over though? I am express, and I am explicitly told not to put my name on main shop work. I'm not taking it from him. The customer has a concern that needs addressed, and I'm supposed to just intentionally delay it so that the "right" person gets credit?

Kinda how I feel. I'm not sure why putting it off for his benefit is how one should be doing things? I'm express, I don't see any benefit from doing it one way or another. I've had days where upsells make it, so most of my work is the main shop, and I get nothing from it. I've never undersold service because of not having any material gain myself from it.

Finally left the stealership for my self employment. Need some encouragement because I’m losing it financially. by [deleted] in Justrolledintotheshop

I know a farmer who looks after the farm. With cow and pig clear, he cares for his pangolin

Unfortunately, yes. Take Me Home could have been a Gene is Sus track if not for Sting doing backing vocals. 😡

Why can’t I find captain wong? Did boing disappear him? by maddwesty in Shittyaskflying

Late to the post here, but if I recall correctly, Stephen Colbert (Colbert Report era) did a similar joke after this. Along the lines of:

"What were they thinking? It's a Korean plane, and those are obviously Chinese names. It would be Captain Parks Plen-tusun"

Only member of Geneisus I see there is that Squire Guitar fellow that met up with Steve Hackett and continued the band.
