LOL Thanks for that, I did get a chuckle.
I don't bash customers to their face. I put on a smile, and ignore it...just like I ignore people asking me what year my Corvette is (Viper ACR) every time I go get gas.
I'm dead inside after listening to customer complaints while I was managing a restaurant.
I can only imagine.
I had a good one the other day!
Customer comes in for an inspection. Leaves, about 2 days later calls back. Apparently when we did the Missouri State Inspection, somehow we caused his AC to go out. Customer was very adamant that it was our fault and there was no way his old Contour might of just had it coming.
I told him to call @281CJ and borrow his 1995 Escort GT for a loaner car, assuming the AC works in it.

Impossible will never happen. Your stupid ****ing customer could never handle a track beast like the 95 escort GT. You must be looking for a lawsuit.
I figured the least I could do was supply him with a proper SA2015 helmet, racing gloves from @choate, and a box of dicks from @cobra fern .
I worked as a salesman for a local motorcycle dealership when I was younger. I got the job by literally walking in the door and asking them for a job. I got a few of my friends jobs too and we had a great time. It can be a lot of fun but it's stressful when things are slow and it's not for everyone. I knew I wasn't in it for the long term.
One day my boss said something I didn't like. I was having a bad day and I told him exactly how I felt, walked out the door and never came back. Sometimes sales can bring out the asshole side of people, but it was a good job while it lasted and I made more money than any other job I could have done at the time.

I work in commission sales i sell new and used car parts, I got a guy from a random shop on the phone looking for used tires he gave me the size I said I have yada yada brand with 12/32 of tread left which is almost new for a truck tire. He is like those are over half worn! That's not even close to the 32nds I'm like thats not it works and he's like thanks and hung up. I got a laugh out of that.

I don't understand why people buy used tires to begin with. I mean, I know a lot of people can't really afford whatever shitbox they have which is unfortunate, but there are some damn cheap new tires out there too.
You can find some really nice tires for cheap, say you recently bought new tires for your car you get in an accident and the car was totaled ins company buys it off you then sells it to a salvage yard. Now that car has brand new tires on it, I get almost all my tires used for almost nothing except for the cobra.

Stop causing trouble.
McDonald's doesn't count Kevin.
Listening to several people I know that have gone into car sales, you would think it was millions.
No other occupation can turn perfectly normal people into raging douchebags so quickly, in my experience. The best car salesmen I have dealt with did no selling at all, and I've dealt with them several times in a row as a result.
I'm honestly not sure but I would guess around 100k?

I once spent several hours fixing lights in a showroom. I could not believe some of the garbage that some of the salesmen were saying to what
appeared to be experienced car buyers.

Small sized dealerships you can make $85-90k being a good salesman. Middle of the road stores you can make $120k. Large stores you can make upwards of $300k.
I've never heard of a salesman hitting $1mil a year. I have met 3 guys that made over $500k at least once.
Close, for a smaller store.
Need help? I'm really good...
Honest to God, I would love to work with you. Haha We would have a blast.
