best buy doesn't want to hire me?!

[Loud3 10+ year member]

im dumb because im right about the big three being just as efficient as a cap? or am i dumb because i gave him my opinion? whats wrong with speaking my mind? oh im sorry thats something you dont do.. i forgot, you dont give opinions cuz ur mind is too feeble to have any..

The 'big 3' does not do everything the cap does. The big 3 does not effect the damping/stiffening factor at all.

I wouldn't even really want to be associated with you after reading this, much less HIRE you.
Sounds like a major case of superiority complex just because the guy works for Best Buy. When, he has a job... and you don't?

i dont have a job? i couldve swore im at work right now where cars come in and i inspect them for emissions. i could've swore i was making salary pay with hopes of getting that BB job for mere experience to move onto a more professional shop.. oh yea, you know everything about me don't you.....

Apparently, this industry does not WANT you in it.

Perhaps you should stick to the emissions.

Ahhh... but does the Big 3 have anything to do with it?

I have a pair of SP1000's, an Ohio Generator 220 amp alternator... and I still choose to use a Cap in line to really draw out those kicks in the ***.

Plus it looks neat.

BB doesn't sell or install either, therefor your recomendation would bring the shop manager no closer to his budget and/or bonus for the month.

While you might not give a shit about either one of those, and MAY have given a customer good advice, I assure you BUDGET and BONUS are a priority for your manager.

Trust me. If Best Buy won't hire you... a specialty store is going to turn their nose up at you. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Seriously, all jokes and flaming aside, you need to be more humble during interviews and show a little more respect for the interviewer. After all, he's got what you need, and you don't have shit he can't find somewhere else.

 

[Loud3 10+ year member]

Well, useless argueing with you.

I can see you have your head shoved so far up your ***, you're struggleing for breath.

Have fun with your quest for knowledge... or whatever it is you think you're going to accomplish.

Don't think capacitors have a place in car audio? Open up your amplifiers and tell me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif My point was that without clarification, it's a stupid statement.

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif you know what i mean, though. out of curiousity, do you have a cap hooked up inline with your charging system?

when did i ever say i didn't explain how to install a cap? and im dumb because im right about the big three being just as efficient as a cap? or am i dumb because i gave him my opinion? whats wrong with speaking my mind? oh im sorry thats something you dont do.. i forgot, you dont give opinions cuz ur mind is too feeble to have any..

Considering all of the stories we hear over and over and over about the way the install bays at your average Best Buy are run then I would say in this particular instance speaking your mind was exactly the wrong thing to do.

No one here is saying that speaking your mind is a bad thing in general. But knowing (or at the very least you should have known) the type of response your interviewer was looking for and giving him something from the complete opposite end of the spectrum was likely not the brightest idea.

In the Big Box stores bottom-line sales figures are king and providing customer service is a secondary consideration at best. No, I am not talking down to those of you that ARE Best Buy installers but I would wager that your bosses run things in such a manner that you cannot with any degree of honesty contradict what I have stated.

Bottom line here is from what you've shared with us it sounds suspiciously like you talked yourself right out of a job.
