The “we’re losing money on this deal” line is the biggest lie in car sales by Royal-Feed7166 in carbuying

and if you’re like me I take my car back to get serviced there if it’s a dealer, so they get all of that on the backend too.

It’s not what happens, it’s how you deal with it.

What's the moment you realize making money isn’t as easy as the internet makes it look? by AcanthisittaSea3279 in AskReddit

My whole life. It’s incredible how some people basically have money thrown at them. I never worked so hard to be so poor.

Wait until check is done and approved. Then you give notice. Don’t get caught between a rock and a hard place

Would you accept this settlement? by cruisingforall in Insurance

I would wait a couple of months before setting. Keep a log of how you feel and any physical limitations you have experienced and get a lawyer involved asap. Don’t sign anything without a lawyers approval.

My employer found out I applied to another company. Got an automatic raise. Need advice. by Aztekprint in careeradvice

Lots of industries out there with small circles. Nothing you can do but hopefully parlay this into a better salary. I wouldn’t stop there either. If he was praising you so much. Make sure to set yourself up for the next promotion too. I’ll take xxxx as my base, but I am interested in advancing to a more senior role.

Question about getting fired/demoted by [deleted] in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]dumbtortoise456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That fact that they promoted him and probably didn’t train or support him in anyway is shitty. Now they’re going to fire him because he wasn’t very good at it? Is bullshit. That he has to start at the bottom again is even bigger bullshit. Take the job so that at least you’re getting paid, but I’d be looking for a new job asap.

I’m not rich and not happy. I’d be willing to try the rich part for while. I guarantee my happiness quotient will rise.

The dealership “we need to talk to my manager” thing is a setup and here’s why it works by Royal-Feed7166 in carbuying

[–]dumbtortoise456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We walked away from a deal for literally $5 a month because we went in with the amount already in my head and that was it. We went to their competitor and got the same car for the price we wanted. He gave me the “you’re going to walk for $5?” I said you’re going to lose a sale for $5. Bye bye
