Sign of the times , but it's somewhat localized I think , there's a Harley dealer in Newnan Ga. advertising for sales associates .
Go figure.
I'm guessing the sign for "sales associates wanted" isn't because sales are through the roof, most likely the economy being what it is their salesmen couldn't make a living.
I'm just lucky, hearing all this negative comments about dealerships. My dealer is Engle Motors ( BMW $ Triumph )in Kansas City, every employ there calls me by my first name. I've never since 1965 prepaid for a parts order, even for T140 parts.
We are all adults here, some times you have to put a hand out. Just like in politics, business and your personal life. Let's face it salesmen are strange folks, some stand back, some are on you like a cheap suit. I prefer the ones who leave me alone till I ask for help.
The parts & service counter is different I like it when they tell you about all the new stuff in or coming.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
