Sorry to hear it man. I would stay away from circuti city htough, they have basically s*** for product. A couple decent audiobahn subs, a couple nice pioneer head units, maybe a few alpine pieces every once in a while, and of course the infinity speakers. But all their really good stuff (alpine, mtx) is gone, at least at the stores around here.

Good luck getting it worked out with tweeter.

Well, I am going to get another job for a pay check, not for discounts.
 
If you can, get a part-time job at CostCo. They pay well and have good benefits. It has treated me well so far.
 
Best buy is rough they dont like to pay more than 10 per hour pt. ANd you will probably have to scrap for hours.

No way. No one makes even close to that around here. Especialy with a basic MECP certs. About the only ones that can take in close to that are the guys at sound in motion and perhaps kenyon Lee in the BU tweeter.
wow, then you should come to NY
 
part time job...home depot is key...they pay their cashiers around 15 an hour around here. Its worth a shot. Not audio related...but you wont spend money on audio equipment!
 
Hey man, supposedly Kenyon is looking to move on in the next few months, if he hasn't yet. The installer where I work is looking for outs, too...Mike Dimeo's his name. He just wants to do something else for a while...not be here, ya know?

Don't worry about French, he may have chewed you out, but JL's new accom form has the changes on it that you forced! ;)
 
French didn't actualy chew me out, JL chewed him out because of me. :D
Then he tried to yell at my manager and tell him to fire me. My manager was cool though and knowing French is useless he said that he wouldn't do anything without French producing proof of what I had done. That pretty much where it ended adn I left the next week.

This crap still chafs my vaginia. After all those little pussy whinning and bitchign that I would be ruinging it, they actualy now have a better overall laid out plan because of me and yet, interestling enough not one person that gave me s*** has said thanks.

**** them all with an elephants dick!

Yeah, I'm bitter.

Oh yeah I know, I just wouldn't wanna work somewhere and be forced to sell people just decent stuff for the price of good stuff when they would be willig to pay for Alpine of JL or something but just came to the wrong store. See what I'm saying?
 
wow i just read all 4 pages.

I dont go to shops for the exact reason that i cant get a straight answer. Its good to know theres people like u out there. Whatever u decide i wish u luck.

oh and i thought working for companies and getting a discount was common knowledge. who knew that was sacred. I mean everyone has to know, any retail store u go to empoyees get discounts, and if not they usually ask lol. those car domain people are unconstructive and cloudy. lol
 
I wouldn't have worked at a movie theater for so long if I didn't get to watch free movies. When upper management changed the policy, the managers used to just slip employees in because otherwise they would loose good workers.
 
Well isn't this just ******* GREAT!

I got a call this week for CC, the guy told me to call back and setup an interview for friday or satureday and to ask for Joe *********. So i call back and they tell me he is on vacation until satureday. WTF!? Morons.

So I talk to this clown for a few minutes and eventualy he realizes that I am the person HE ******* called. Obviously this guy smoked away any trace of brain cells along time ago. He says Joe will be in satueday and asked him to setup an interview with me. Since I have things to do today, i set it up for 10 AM today.

Anyone wanna take a guess what happened when i got there?
Apparently Joe wasn't even coming in until 12!!!!!!!!!
So an installer gave him a call, atleast there is one helpful and intelligent person in their employ. He talks to Joe and I can hear joe telling him on the phone that he never asked anyone to call me in. Again WTF!

So I get on the phone with this monkey and he tells me that he read my app but that the mobile department doesn't even have any openings right now. Again WTF! He then asks me if I was open to working in any other department and that he would call me at home when he got in. Holding my rage back at this point with all that I have, I just told him fine and hung up the phone and walked out.

And Circuit wonders why they are all but in chapter 11. It must be a running contest between stores to see how many jerk offs they can pack into one department.



Now flip to last night at tweeter. I stopped by, filled out an app, for formality reasons only, and then the manager simply said that so long as I didn't get any felonies since the last time I worked there, that he would call me this thursday with when I am starting and a scedual.

He made us work late for two nights in a row off the clock. It was only about 20-30 minutes the first two nights, so we just grumbled about it. The third day I was in a bad mood, and after 45 minutes I told him I was leaving or going back on the clock, and he said if I did either he would fire me, so I told him he had my permission. Rather violently.
