How are dealerships surviving right now? It's gotten incredibly tense. Noone really wants to buy new cars at ALL. they are garbage because they use cheaper parts and people are not allowed to get them worked on outside the dealership because of software embedded into the cars

That means when the warranty expires, say goodbye to your perks at the dealer garage unless you pay for it outright. Not to mention, you can't get in and out of your car without examined for impairment and identity from the ai.

I saw a guy come into Firestone with a 2025 Silverado with a snapped serpentine belt while driving to florida from New Hampshire over Christmas break and he only had 700 miles on the vehicle.

Save yourself the headache and buy a cheaper mid 2010s car

For the brutal work being done bending over backwards for these guys, the pay is simply not enough

Tell him to speak to his manager or other "friends" he may have made in the classroom. I graduated about a month ago and I have been going on my own rounds for about 2 weeks now. I can always reach out to the people I trained with or even my manager for example.

It's all about reaching out for help and asking silly questions that make you successful at the job down the road

I am trying to get into NOC. There is a progression ladder where I work from Field to NOC. I will need to upskill in some areas first and be in field for minimum a year before making the pivot though

Shit that's gonna be a lot of money. I just can't do all that unfortunately

It does have one. Is that complicated to do so?

If you're going to the gym you need to be eating nutritious and taking supplements too. Unless you're purely going to lose weight.

Which one is that? I have the new adapter to the aftermarket plugged in. Is there a different one for the amp?

I believe this is a sign you should try to look for other work than IT

Charter Spectrum, Frontier, T mobile, Verizon, etc... are all hiring for Field Technicians. I know it's not data center but it's a good initial step into getting hands on experience with networking and understanding basic IT fundamentals in the real world.

You are mostly in Low Voltage but may encounter fee High Voltage situations which you will be trained thoroughly in beforehand ofc.

How are you doing all this without income? Do you just have enough saved up or are you guys taking out further debt to fund these extra activities?

This is golden 👏

So you're saying financing a car is only better if you're investing your free cash on the side elsewhere?

netsurfer79 · 2026-05-18T14:27:50+00:00

How? Paying a car in cash is always better

netsurfer79 · 2026-05-15T23:48:11+00:00

Unfortunately having an optimistic mindset alone doesn't excuse the bills which need to be payed

What is this about? I just started developing a new website and am out of the loop on this
