Id work for yamaha for about a year now................and i realized its not all peaches and cream working for a motosports business, it blows!!!!! dealing with stupid people makes the job suck!!!
All day stupid people in, stupid people out! all day for 6 days a week, 50 hour weeks..............there is alot of really good people in this world.........but half of them are butt wagons!!!!

i got laid off because there is no snow in minnesota, no snow, no job they told me when i started........we've gotton one snow fall this year..........sooooooooooo when yesterday when only about 8 people came in to yamaha, then things started to get a little hairy................then tonight...............they told me, you were the last one hired........so we gotta let you go!!!!!!!!

but whatever............NEVER NEVER NEVER BE A PARTS GUY!!!!!!!!!

You have no IDEA what you are about to embark upon, sure it sounds like a GREAT job and is for the first month or so and then it just starts to slowly eat at you. Especially if you work the parts. I worked in a *****ty place (tranSPORT motor sports) that was as organized as a piece of ***** and I guess that did not help my experience either.

You may love the sport as much as i do............but never, never work for the store!!!! everyday goes by, people constantley arguing with you, WHY ARE MY PARTS BACK ORDERED, WHY THE HELL DOES THAT COST SO MUCH, GIMME A DEAL, I KNOW SO AND SO........bla bla bla.............people become real jerks......and dealing with them every day makes you wanna kill yourself

when i first started, i though i was in heaven!!!! man being surrounded my bikes, wheelers, sled, eye candy all over the place.............................wow.....i had the job!!!!!! NOOOOOOO its like a model, shes damn hot, but there not a damn thing you can do about it!!! then the stuff starts to piss you off...........then you don't want to look at a sled bike ...ect when your not working, you wanna stay far away from the crap as possiable!

You answer 100 phones calls a day..........you go home and you don't wanna talk to no one..............you hear a ring of a phone, and you wanna strangle someone!!!!!!!! not cool!!!!!!!!!

and in about 4 months of working you want out, but you can't cause you got bills, that nice bike you put on the credit card, "i gotta work that off" I can't quit......so you keep on working, DAY AFTER DAY, SAME BS, DAY AFTER DAY


then you quit/fired and you start acting sane again, and thats where im at

Man u guys hit the nail on the head!!! I used to always think working in a bike shop would be SOOOO awesome. WRONG. It was cool for a while, but ppl make it a HORRIBLE job. Like Mini said. "why are my parts backordered" "Why is that so much" "comon man i buy so much from you, cut me a break" to all of you ppl that say that to your local bikeshop..........EAT ONE! I hate my job anymore!im the manager of a parts shop. ANd ppl dont understand that i have NOTHING to do with parts being backorderd. Call Parts unlimited or honda, and B#TCH to them! I hear ya Mini, and im about to walk out. I wanna get out of dealing with customers, and just do Labor. Atleast everynight when u go home your tired and can sleep, instead of just brain fried and worried about whos gonna come in a B#TCH you out tomorrow.

i never had a saturday off till this last week when i got sick!!!!!!
and they got pissed!!!!! ITS BS

the business is BS

"Parts please? PARTS, ARE MY PARTS IN, BACKORDERED!!! WHAT???? I DON'T WANT OEM IF I CAN GET IT AFTERMARKET, CAN I EXCHANGE THESE, I DON"T HAVE MY RECEIPT, yes sir, i know you special ordered that CDI box..........CAN I RETURN IT, I DON"T NEED IT..............."

Yeah ll the ppl wanna $hit on yuor face, until they want a good price on a part, then they are your best friend!! Its BS, i couldnt even get off to go to FL and GA to race!!! I work at a bike shop and cant get off to race!!?? *** it!i dont even have time to ride. I work 10-6 everyday except sunday. Its too early to get up and ride b4 work cuase th eneighbors *****, and its too late when i get home, cuase its dark. And ppl think that if u give them a 15-20% discount, then bikeshops are still making a killing. Let me inform you guys that always want to get $hit for cost or free. The markup on ATV and Bike parts is not very high!! Its not like the automotive world. Where this is usually around 75-100% markup. Usually 30-35%. So if someone gives u a 15-20% discount, be happy with it and stop your B*TCHING!!

sorry had to vent
