2006 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon.. He left me a voice mail yesterday saying that he was going to be out of town for a few days and that he would call me when he gets back.. So I hope to see it at the end of this week

Been spending alot of time with rotors the last few days. The GM 2500 and 3500 series Truck ones are fun.. Good Times :)

Just had my TimeWarner Modem replaced.
Ive had the same one since about 1998
Holy crap that thing was slow. (still faster than some ive used) but now...The internet is like a whole new experience!

and I had the guy hook up a new HD box in the master bedroom.
Just cant watch Discovery channel @ 2am unless its HD!

\"Jonathan, Get the shop vac and squidgy\" Yeah we had a little flood issue that covered half the warehouse part of the store this morning..

Working retail is fun.. Fairly confident in saying that puting away sandels at Target sucks way more than playing with rotors, dare I even say batteries at Nu Way

Olive garden does not give free desert for birthdays anymore!

My last day at Nu Way Buffalo is Tomorrow. I won\'t go into it to deep because it\'s a sponsor of the club and a popular place to buy parts for a lot of the GM Dealers and Repair shops across WNY. But I will say that I am very happy to get out of there. I\'m hoping other Nu Way Stores are different in that I wouldn\'t wish working an inside the building position at the Buffalo store on anybody.

As an EMPLOYER myself...I feel its safe to say not every person fits into every working environment. Some people just disrupt the MOJO of a crew! I have seen it time and time again. An employee can start Monday morning, and some of them strategically take their tools out to lunch with them, only to never return, nor ask to be paid for the half days work the just performed. A well oiled work crew is like an engine...if some dirt gets into the intake, things get ugly fast.

Since I havent received a paycheck from a company other than from my own since 1997, Im a little bias. But we all appreciate your discretion.

Sorry to hear you had a negative experience working for NUWAY. I have found NU-WAY and HAHN Automotive to employ some of the most professional and knowledgeable people in the business.

XJ, it takes hard work and determination to overcome those types of hurdles. Best of luck in Florida!

Erik..
thought provocative and very true.  
Sometimes people just don’t mesh well with one another.. happens all the time.. work, play, school, whatever…

XJ,
since you brought it up.. and you might have some constructive criticism on how to improve an operation... I wouldn’t mind knowing more...

Feel free to post, email, or call..  It takes a lot to offend me..

I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors..
