Well, even though we are only 3 months into 2008, it has had it share of ups and downs for me and my family. Feb 8th was bad-the day I got laid off. I did get a job here in Greenville working at an indepedant shop, but it just hasn't been what I need in order to make the $$$ to support my family. I did have another dealer in NC talk to me and I thought they were going to offer me a job, but I haven't heard from them in 2 weeks. Well, last week I called a friend of mine I hadn't spoken to in awhile and he said his dealership had a service advisor quit recently and they hadn't replaced that person. He wasn't sure they were hiring, but I sent in my resume anyways. I went and talked to them today and they offered me a job there on the spot........they want me to start Monday! And the best part......it is a Ford dealer! Now, I can finally plan things with the family, I'll be able to make some car shows this year.......and I'll be able to catch up on my bills. I feel the best I've felt since January...................Thank the Lord! Hm........it also means I can start planning on what things to do to the GT........it's going to be a great year!

Cool. What Ford dealer are you working at now?? I like working at the dealership because if you talk to the guys in parts then you can get a good discount. Mine was 15% over cost, now the parts guy quit so I'm the parts department so Dealer cost = My price. Glad to hear you got back in the dealer loop.

Yeah. We have 2 techs, me and another guy. We also have one guy that does service writing, calls and parts ordering and looking up. He races his dogs and wasn't there on Friday so I had to fill in. This upcoming week the other tech will be at school getting his re-certs, so it looks like its all me in another way.
