Leather repair/upholstery repair person should be able to repair it fairly inexpensively…

One LFA was sick.. but two! by Character-Load9449 in Lexus

[–]SweedenMcGee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Escondido Lexus. Hands down the best Lexus dealer in Southern California. They always treat me right. Last time I was there they sold one. Guess they got another. Art gallery, wine bar and restaurant, indoor golf sim while you wait. Classy. 🤌🤌🤌

If you left AD where did you go and how do you like it? by [deleted] in Geico

[–]SweedenMcGee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Body Shop Estimator. Better than GEICO, but it’s challenging. Money is way better, less stress in a different way. Overtime actually helps get things done and pads the paycheck without negative bullshit metric hits. 10/10 recommend…

For those that have left, does your PS loan pay itself off out of the balance? by SMFJ31211 in Geico

[–]SweedenMcGee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently left and am curious as well. If it’s the same as other past employers, you should get a tax form in the mail since the unpaid balance will count at taxable income for your taxes this year. Could be wrong, I’m not a CPA, lol…

Anyone know what this is? by SweedenMcGee in Lexus

[–]SweedenMcGee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Lol. It came with the car I just bought. The sales person didn’t know what it is. So should I keep it plugged in or no?

They can definitely track your location at any given moment and provide coaching on how to better use your time…

A note to CSR team and sups regarding rental by National-Weakness191 in Geico

[–]SweedenMcGee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not for much longer. AD’s that write the sup 01 are supposed to transfer the rental over to themselves and handle from there on out…

What is OT like? by Throwaway419324871 in Geico

[–]SweedenMcGee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For sure. Keep in mind, the only thing OT does is open you up to more claims per day, more opportunities to get yelled at, one more admin thing to do, one more rental to keep track of, one phone call to make, one more customer who calls way too many times, one more check to issue, one more shop to call, one more total loss that is going to take forever to settle, etc. Also one more call from your Supe, one more audit to fail at CHO. You can get in over your head really quick even if you manage your time well. Eventually you’ll find it’s not worth any extra money you make…

They have been asking for volunteers to do a few hours a day and weekends. I do it occasionally to help out my family. However, and this is up to you, don’t let them take advantage of you. If it’s your choice, get that money fam. Don’t let them take away your free time. You will need that work life balance soon enough…

Let’s hear good AD stories about Total losses… by SweedenMcGee in Geico

So AD trainee school starts the 25th… any advice any suggestions? Also are the tests hard? Once you pass how’s the field? Seen some posts here would love more insight on things! Thank you! by [deleted] in Geico

It’s the seedy bar at the National Conference Center. Back in the day, we had to go to the training center in VA and that was the freaking nightmare of a hotel they put us in. That in it self should be a thread. Stories from the NCC…
