To OP, you are a car fi sales guy and the people in your store obviously do know what they are talking about since they wont let you touch anything.

And I hope those myspace pic arent really yours

And to IAmDeMan...hes obviously had a bad life to this point, is it necessary to take him down even more? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

He isn't taking him down, he is just letting him know he is at the bottom of society.

Well at least you know. Now stop worrying so much about who they are letting pass you up and work on getting your skills tight. If you do that, then someone is bound to notice.

Im still working on that, thats why i come on here and ask some of the questions that i do. Im on here probably 2 hours a day if im not working or messing with a car or something just reading shit and trying to learn to better my skills. The whole point of this thread is because im pissed that someone else gets MY job and MY hours, rather than giving me the chance to actually do some sort of training so i know more about different things (remote start, security, mobile video, etc.) so now im down to ****in 14 hours a week.

Earlier someone asked whether i was an installer or a salesperson, honestly i dont know. I was hired as an autotech, and ive done installs. Like a radio here and there, a set of speakers, amps, sub, whatever. Ive been told for 8 months now that im gonna get in the install bay and train with the head installer about security and remote start and all that, but everytime i ask whats up with that im told "you need to stay on the sales floor and sell stuff, well get you in there." So after all this wait someone else gets my job, how would that make you feel?

Welcome to life.

Welcome to life.

word. its kinda shitty right now. I have to deal with assholes at work and on here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Then show them you are serious and take initiative. Complete all the geeksquad autotech e-learnings, pass the best buy mobile exam, pass the mecp practice exam, etc.

And honestly, if you have never been a lead installer then it is best for them (and you) to hire an installer with more experience. One of the hardest things when starting out, atleast for me, was learning the best way to take apart dashes and trim pieces on all different cars. It's nice to have someone who can teach you...

and if you enjoy car audio, the last thing I would do is quit.

that means you´re about to get fired. Oh and good luck getting blue crew...haha.

I do understand why you are frustrated but judging from what you told us, it looks like the other installers recognized that you aren´t what they expected/were looking for.

I can't wait till 2010 when people have forgotten about Obama.

I usually just post links so that people can wet their panties when the link isn't available anymore.

...but the print on the shirt is fitting, wouldn't you agree?

Probably if your grammar was that of a first grader, you'd be a pimp installer with your own digs.
