Hey John,
Sorry to hear the bad news.
I just got home from the new job at MB. The first 2 days were terrifying. It's like trying to learn a foreign language in a few days. And at my age, learning doesn't come as easy as it used to. Today was better. I think after a few weeks I will have their computer system learned.
Right before I got the job at MB, I applied at the local Cadillac dealer here in Temecula. I got a real bad vibe talking to the service manager when he started telling me he has techs making $150,000 a year at $24/hour. I did the math and came up with about 24 hours flagged every day. Now I'm a fairly fast tech, but flagging that many hours would require a lot of cheating and stealing. When I hear crap like that, It makes me really hate this industry. So far the guys at MB seem pretty honest. I think MB flat rate may pay a little better then SAAB.
Well I'm sure you will find something soon. Your a great tech and person.
Just make sure when you apply for a job to use all the great people here on Saabnet as references.
Good luck John
