I hate my place of employment!!!!
 
Ok so i thought i would just vent here a bit. I work for a local chrysler dealer an we've had this 05 RT-10 viper in the backlot for about 3 months just sitting there.Well i never really cared because i figured it was just waiting for whatever parts....

usually we get vipers in for stupid shyt like trim peices falling apart or whatever and it literally takes a few months for us to get the parts since they don't make them till we order the fuckers, Hell we had a viper in a stall for 2 months because the seat adjustwas broken and the guy didn't want to drive it until we fixed it.

but back to the subject at hand......well today i see one of our parts guys whell up this huge ------ box and look at me and laugh...i'm like wtf is that a motor?He goes u hit the nail on the head.Well i'm not worried about it cuz i'm not a heavy line guy at our shop so i don't do motor jobs.At the end of the day my team leader pulls me in the office with our service manager and i'm like ---- i must have fucked something up without knowing it.They pull me in tellin me how good of a job i've been doing since i've been flaggin 90+ hours lately and that they want me to start getting into heavy line shyt like diesels and engine jobs if i'm interested.I tell them why the heck not it's always good to learn something new. Well they tell me my first engine job is going to be the viper....i just about shyt my pants.....seriously i can't stand when these owners bring in there cars for a ------ oil change because they will not let u even get in the fukkin car to pull it into your stall.....I looked at my Manager an said "first off, i'm not even a Viper certified technician" (Our only Viper tech actually just quit about a month ago)
He says not to worry that he talked to Chyrsler and they okay'd the work because he's having two technicians working on it.So my team leader looks at me and says "u ready to get fucked hard?" at this point i'm just like WTF

Well most motor jobs that are warrantied only pay about 10 hours at the most so we lose our ass on a simple long block replacement.This ------- job is only going to pay us 11.8 hours.....we have to split the time so we are only getting paid for 5.9 hours....WTF!!!!!!
When my team leader told me this i just about quit....i got so ------- pissed and like 3 guys had to pull me out of the shop because i was talking shyt about our manager how he lets Chrysler dick us around an shyt. Needles to say.....In about a week or so i have to start pulling a viper motor with my team leader.....i am in a bad fukkin mood right now.......i need another fukkin beer >:(

Theres always the option of stealing the viper after you replace the engine.

Re: I hate my place of employment!!!!
 
ask for the motor and if not then do like the viper tech did.

I honestly didn't realize how many fukking problems these make of cars have until i started working here and realized most the work were on 04 an up models.....i mean i bust my ass to make my 80+ hours but if i were at honda with the same amount of work i would be flagging an easy 140 hours+

yea right....when we have the motor out we have to get a Chrysler engineer over and have them tear down the bitch before it gets sent back to se what exactly is wrong with it......i think my team leader said the bitch was running on 6 cyclinders or some ---- but i'm not sure

yea but the viper tech opened his own meineke.....maybe i should give him a call an see if he has any openings....

CRY about it u will always get fucked on warranty work.

Re: I hate my place of employment!!!!
 
+1 on warranty work.I would refuse the job and quit.People seem to think if they buy an expensive car they need no maintanence.

polaris and bombardier always paid us whatever we told them to on warranty work :6

I didn't get to flag hours though, I was just hourly. Although, it was nice to take my time.

RotaryGeek 05-18-2007 02:05 PM

Re: I hate my place of employment!!!!
 
---- if a bad mechanic was paid hourly he would make a badass paycheck. If a good mechanic was paid hourly he would make less. Shitty situation to be in, but its only a couple more hours of work, and if you are smart, wait until its almost time for the last hours and call in sick, let the other guy finish it up. Go to the doctor and get a note and there is nothing they can do to you. i think, don't quote me on that. If you do it and get fired i take absolutely no blame for it.

Dodge is awesome! ::)

I was a 2nd shift manager at a gas station/store (w00t) a few years back, and someone came in asking to use the phone because the brand new Chrysler they were test driving decided to ---- the bed. Dealership came to pick the person up. It was quite funny. I don't think the guy bought one.

agreed. good techs can get'm done in 8-10 hours (buttoned up and running) and take the rest of the day off with the extra 2-4 hours in the bank.
i know, i was a manager.

Funny you said that, we had this douchbag ------- bring his car into our HONDA dealership and the viper owner wanted to pull his car unto the lift himself. The stupid ---- couldn`t even line the car up straight to get the lift arms under it so we had to line it up for him. All the while he watched liked we were going to ---- up his POS car. That kind of ---- pisses me off.

If you`re flagging 90hrs a week I wouldn`t bitch too much. Because it sounds like you aren`t doing warranty work or anything too difficult...must be all new car PDI`s huh? Those are cake.

I`ve been a honda cert/ase cert repair tech for 2 years, everyone I work with is a pissing moaning bitching diva...trust me if you`re around diva bitches it makes work miserable. Just find a new job if you hate it that much.

I'll walk 20 miles in the ------- snow before I hop in a dodge/chyrsler product. And you can quote me on that!

That is pretty gay that they shafted you with the whole splitting hours up. Know what? They get what they pay for. If they only want to pay you for 5.9 hours of work, then give them a 5.9 hours worth of work on that pile. In other words do a half assed job. ---- them. If they don't like then you'll probably get fired, but if they say that pull the old "you can't fire me I quit" card.

12 hours on a long block fine......but now 12 hours on a viper long block......it's not like i can just rush this shyt and be like o fuk who cares if i leave lil scratches her an there from my tools sitting there or grease from the airline leaning against whatever an shyt.....u come work on a fukin car like this....we get ---- if there are ------- latex prints from our gloves on the engine bay let alone any other grease or debri when taking shyt apart. We have to work this car like it's a fukkin ferrari.....

when ur done with an engine job say on a ------ peon u can just have a porter hit with the pressure washer an be on ur way.....yea try that shyt with a viper and see how ------ reemed u get....if u've never worked on cars like this before don't give ur 2 cents about why i shouldn't be bitching.....get some facts on how people are shown how to work on shyt like this then come back at me an tell me they don't tell u to be very cautious with every single nut and bolt u take off....

an bitch a Customer Pay R&R on cars these days are 28 hours....most our master techs knock em out in about 15 or so.....aparently our mechanics who have been in the buisness for 15 + years aren't shyt an they should have there ase master certs taken away huh......we aren't talking about no fukin honda or nissan motor her u fuk....

find me a mechanic that can pull a 24v cummins motor out of a truck and slap in a new one in under 12 hours....aside from lifting the whole fukking cab access the motor it takes a good 3 full days of work bitch.....
