Your mesage reminded me of an article I read at edmunds.com a while back. It might be interesting to see what happens, especially after getting the job.

Edmunds.com "Confessions of a Car Salesman -- WARNING: it's a pretty lengthy article"

THat edmunds read is very long - but I'm half way done. its extremely interesting. I feel sick reading it and abused, like "damn, so thats what they do". And I think back to when I went into the chevy dealership 2.5 months ago. It was awful and it was just like this.

Dammit, people read it Its great - it gets good around page 4 or 5. Props, kudos, snaps to tenchim!!!!

Just lie & bs, you'll fit right in and they'll hire you.

[edit] Reading the link above now, quite interesting. [/edit]

Ughhh just finished reading the entire article, and I feel the same way, Skoorb. I went to a Mazda dealership about 2 months ago, and thinking back, I was fed much of the same lines, and I fell for each of them hook-line-n-sinker. Luckily, I was wise enough to walk away before signing anything.

Thanks, but yeah I should've mentioned it was kinda long. It being a great read is probably the only reason I remembered it well enough to find it again. In any case, good luck to Adam with the interview!
