I Need A New Job!
My work is pissing me off! I hate it. Ive been there for 6 years and they treat me like worse then the people that just started!
So I need a new job. Anyone have any Ideas? I when to school for auto but I dont know if I want to do that anymore. If I did work on cars I would want to work with more performance cars not grandmas buick!
I have searched a bit and cant find anything close to my house(Shoreview). This is kinda just a vent thread but if anyone knows of any place let me know!

Re: I Need A New Job!
Are you trying to be paid by salary, commision, or hourly? Also how much money are you looking to make roughly per hour?
I have a few things in mind depending on what kind of salary you are trying to make.

Re: I Need A New Job!
I get paid $10.30/hr right now. Im looking for something $14+/hr. Benifits would be nice too.
The thing is, Im getting a raise on this check and I will deside on weather I stay or go. Because NEW people get paid the same as I do. Thats pure BS!

Re: I Need A New Job!
You should try Burnsville Napa, they will start you out at like 9 bucks an hour maybe more since you seem to be knowledgable about cars.
Then you take a safety course test and get a 50 cent raise. Right after that you can take your first lap test which is a dollar raise. So right there you are at 10.50 minimium for a decently easy job.
Those "test" are super easy and are common sense basically. After that you can take a lap test every few months and get a 35 cent raise until you are done with your laps. There are 4-6 laps, can't remember for sure.
Plus if you are ASE certified, which I'm sure you are or could be, you start out at like 13 bucks an hour and still get all those raises from the lap test you take.
So realistically you could be right around 15 bucks an hour after the first few months of working there. I know they are going to be needing people here very soon if not now and maybe even a full timer. If you went full time you would get benefits.
If you consider this just PM me, I can basically get you the job no questions asked if they are looking.

Re: I Need A New Job!
Crap, I don't know how far that is away from Shoreview, just remembered that is where you are located.
But if it was only a half hour drive I would def consider it!

Re: I Need A New Job!
I hate you Karry! I will consider the NAPA deal. I have passed all my auto ASEs but wouldnt you need the parts ASEs to get that starting wage? Only problem is that I had a friend who worked there and he hated it!

Re: I Need A New Job!
This is a privately owned Napa, it really is a laid back atmosphere. Plus my old roomie manages during the nights and he doesn't make you do anything for the most part.
Only time you really have to do anything is when Paul is around, which isn't much.

Re: I Need A New Job!
Are you going to be at the Dyno Day? We could talk more about the job then, and if you are really considering it, you should act on it as fast as possible.
Doesn't take them long to find an employee, and while I'm in the cities I can go meet up with the two owners in person and talk to them.

Re: I Need A New Job!
Type in PaR Nuclear in Monster, and see if any of the multiple jobs that come up are in your field. That's where I work, and it is in Shoreview.
