Default Another one bites the dust

as some of you may remeber, i recently began working at my companies Mitsubishi dealer due to the fact the Honda dealer I was working at was overstaffed. I just recieved word a few hours ago that effective 5-29 my dealership will be closed and now longer a Mitsubishi dealer or service facility. Again I am a man without a country, my manager informed me that I will more than likely be reassigned to the Hyundai dealer next store, so this makes 3 dealerships in 4 months for me. i wanted to stay with Mitsubishi because the cars are solid, the warranty is pretty good and the problems they have are consistant to the point where i know the prices off the top of my head.

no mitsu has ever been that solid hahaha.

Mitsu USA has been going under for a while now, actually when you started I said the same thing to you. I would go to Hyundai they are totally revamping what they have been knwn for in the past. Great cars for the price and perfect warrenties PLUS they are not going under lol

we are doing a solid business right now. i've been busy as hell the last 2 weeks so it sucks that they took the wind out of my sales (i know its spelled differently but its making a point) I would much rather go back to honda because its closer to my house and i'm already Honda certified. i'm just gonna have to roll with this one.

i don't know yet to be honest, probably. when i left my last job in RV's to work at the honda store i went from 72 to 60, from honda to mitsubishi i was on track for 45. my family is kinda nervous. my wife is trying to get all the hours she can at her job just to help keep our heads above water. i tried to go back to rvs but they filled my posistion (they also cut the pay because i was the last one there making that kind of money). so in a nut shell, i'm pretty screwed

Thats typical of a company.. Hire someone for less

Thats what I hate about bigger companies these days.. They dont care about the little man just collecting the pay check. There all about making money and if they can find someone else to do your job for less the better [X(]
