RE: Working for Best Buy sucks
ORIGINAL: stangcrazy
I would have loved to have a job installing car sterio's when I was in school. Heck if I could support a wife and 2 kids I would still like to. I just can't believe that the person that installed it didn't even check thier work out to see if it was all good before giving it to the costomer. I have done alot of installs for myself and alot of friends and I always double check my work before I put everything back together. But I feel your pain man, I was an Electronic's Technician in the Air Force for 6 years and I hated fixing other peoples mistakes. Just have to sit them down and tell them to get thier heads out of thier asses and do the job right.

I was an ECM troop. Electronic Counter Measures or Electronic Warfare. Now I am in the reserves as a BioMedical Equipment Tech. I did 6 years active and got out in October 05. A friend of mine and his wife live in Ft Walton Beach. He is a ECM reservist at Duke Field and she flys out of Hurlbert as a spanish linguist. I used to work on compass call. If you dunno what that is just do a google search.

Yep, im an istaller at circuit city... Fortunately we have some of the best installers around the area... I hate having to fix the local shop's mistakes. It's funny when you can tell where someone got there stuff installed just by looking at it. But I know what u mean... fixes suck.

Jimmz: Haha... Your right... Best buy is right across the street and the kick our ***... No one is ever in our store, but our installation bay is always busy. I would say it would be cool to have nothing to do, but it gets boring. Id rather be working to pass the time...
And yep, we're getting Eclipse in April, but we are getting rid of infinity. OUr discount sucks compared to BB, but accomodation pricing is the way to go. Much better than any store discount.
