NSS: Got a Better Job!!

_=DeltaForce=_ · 10-17-2006, 08:57 PM

So I work at Circuit City as a Technology specialist. I was trying to be the tech. They had a job opening before, manager told me I would get it. He made me do all the tech work, lied to me and hired a guy after a month. As you may know CCity started Firedog similiar to GeekSquad but better and cheaper. So we had a position for a tech, they again made me do the tech work and they F**ked me over again. In a meeting, they annoucned the tech. They hired a Imaging salesman who doesn’t know much about computers. He doesn’t even know how to troubleshoot computers. So I was really upset and decided to quit the job.
I started looking for a job, I got hired as a Rep for Panasonic. Getting paid double than what I used to get at Circuit City. Better work, I will be visiting different retail stores every week representing Panasonic. Talking to customers and employees about Panasonic products.
I really liked working at ccity but getting betrayed twice just kills me. I used to work late, help them out every time. I came whenever they called me. Put too much dedication and they disappointed me twice. I went far and beyond what was really needed. I am actually the best salesperson in the department and store. I wasn’t looking for a job because I needed more money but basically I was just upset working there. Anyway I ended up with a better pay and a better job.

Congrats on your new job.

Now you could get discount Panasonic products.

Sounds like you were seriously getting jerked around. Also sounds like you got some pretty decent tech / IT experience. I'd keep networking / browsing, you may have a solid future in IT ahead of you.

Good luck!
