Default New Job!
Hey just wanted to let you guys know I got a part time job at my local Harley shop as a salesman. I'm super excited! It's just on the weekends as I have a full time job but what could be better than getting paid to talk to people about my favorite hobby!

So, may we expect a "good buddy" discount?

Gift certificates? I would take that deal, no taxes to report? Congrats, just don't turn into an "official" salesman. You will start losing brain cells.

Hope you enjoy the experience. Don't know how long you've been into motorcycling. Be prepared for the "dealing with the public" experience. A certain number of people you will deal with will have made the decision to have their first motorcycle dealer experience as they were driving by that day. Remember a large portion of the customer base you will deal with don't know where the controls (throttle, brake, clutch, etc.) are on a bike.

Good luck.
