doesn't look like they have anything available in my area, ill send them a resume thou, thanks.

yup a real employee, salary paid.. my title was e-marketing / data management.

yes they took deductions

im tellin you man, hit the showroom, if you are a people person and can follow the basics of presentation with value on payment vs options you can make a killing.


Frig I miss sales, used to make a killing before the market fell apart here.

hahah he owns the one across the street and like 3 others.. and than his brother owns many others in the city, but yeah im confident Ill be ok..

today the service manager asked if I knew anyone that could build a blackberry app to display their inventory page on.. I laughed said I could do that but unforntually I wont be working here next week, so X will have to help you with that lmfao... and he was like wtf why they getting rid of you... so far no one is impressed :) which makes me feel good, everyone was depandant upon me.

I'd start searching for a new job in the first place.

theres a reason I am a webmaster.. I am not a people person, I am slightly deaf which makes communication my weak spot.

Id for sure do well if I could thou just because im motivated like crazy.

well it been less than 24hrs since I found out and I as well as my manager and an internet manager at another dealership has been putting the word out that I am available.. so the word is out.. don't worry that was my first choice before coming here to cry :)

thou id rather work online again.. I am thinking about going back to school to learn some programming so I can build some better sites on my own and generate my own leads :)

so sorry to hear. Lately I've seen lots of good people losing their jobs, this economy is just so sad...

Well I doubt that is part of your job's responsibilities... charge them consulting fee to teach her and head over to the competition for an interview.

WOW YOU BIG TOUGH GUY!

Have fun letting society walk on you your boss LOVES guys like you.

If they ask you back, tell them you want a raise or you're handing in your two weeks notice now. Take your skills elsewhere and see how they like having no one to do the job now... :2 cents:

Fight for your damn right bro.

Now is your time to negotiate, the ball is yours.. they threw you an interception.

this is so true.. with all the knowdlege you got, focus on going solo and get into affiliate programs. its the best man.. working for someone else is always a pain in the ass

So you still have a job?

I suggest that you get your legal advice from adult webmasters, either that or go to an employment lawyer.

Just take her through the motions, how to take pictures of the cars, enter the data into the website etc. Do not show her how you market or generate leads.

First of all they undervalue what you do thinking that they can throw anyone into the same position and get the same results. She will very likely sink and their sales will go down.

Try finding a job with another dealership in the mean time. If you leave on good terms you almost guaranteed a call back in 2-4 months from them looking to hire you back when she flops. Which if you don't have another job yet you might want to take them up on it, at a higher pay of course since they would now value you a lot more.

I would show her 1/10th of the job so she thinks, wow, this was easy! Then the shitstorm starts after you are gone.

Next, don't quit. Get fired so you get unemployement. While on that continue doing what you were doing... Only for a different demographic (America) and selling the leads to online car companies like CarMax.com...

Or do this same service online. Do it for 100's of dealers...

Laws are different place to place but Ontario has good ones. They RARELY can fire you and replace you with someone else without just cause.

You will have to go in for the 2 weeks otherwise they can say you quit and you'll have no chance at EI.

But just call the labor board to be sure.

Congrats on getting your job back :)

Getting fired does not get you un-employement insurrance .... You need to be laid off or your position abolished ... In 1980 , that was true, not anymore.
