Like working around Cars?

April 2008***
Dumb question on this site, but I am serious.

A local tire comany is looking for good guys to hire FT. Your not just going to learn about tires, you will be trained on mechanical too if you desire.

Good work, with the opportunity to advance. All training is provided, and to advance further and get paid more all you do is complete the training. We got a good crew, and are looking for a few more to make our team better. You need a good working history, and be clean cut.

Benefits are good, there is some sweet bonus's, and you get good discounts on tires, wheels, etc.

If your interested, simply pm me and I can get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks!,

-D

If our SE location is too far for you, pm me and I can get you into one of our other tireshops in Calgary & Edmonton! Pm me for more info! So far I think we have hired 5 Beyonders, and we are looking for more!

I also have not mentioned the fact that many get hired and get promoted rather quicky through the ranks. As we open up more stores around town the need for managers, assistant managers, etc is needed. We provide all the training to get you there. So if you want to get into a company that is growing like mad, give me a shout!

If only this could have been here about 6 months ago... oh well:(

[AllGoNoShow]

Location?

Shoot me or post some more details, I'm interested and have a buddy who would be interested as well.

[danno567]

Crappy Tire?

yup...based on how many unecessary repair jobs you can do :D

[danno567]

yah i will bet. no we are a tire store and have mechanics for both heavy duty and light passenger.

we are looking for entry level guys who are good to get along with and want to work. We are not looking for slackers, or skids. we are clean cut workers who go hard, and make good cash.

like i said pm me if you are thinking of a new job or are looking for one.

thanks

dan.

Exactly, I'm about to start my training. However I would have liked this an automotive type job while I was going through the recruitment process.

thanks for the replys everyone. i have pm'd most of you and will pm others right away. i will see about part time positions.

Like i said we are looking for a few great ppl to join our team. If your high strung like some here, this is not the job for you. Its both customer service and service work so, being able to talk to clients is required.

Hey SLR sorry your experience was not that great. I am sure you have moved on to bigger and better things in life and I wish you all the best. Yah the videos are totally dated, we gotta get some new ones!

Anyways thanks for you input.

The funniest part of working there is the fucking videos they make you watch... some asshole doing full sprint to do a parking lot greeting... then they take a still frame of him with his mouth open looking like a retard.

Or maybe when they did a sound over of "I went to the Danger Zone" when they video tape someone taking on the insane task of changing 4 tires on a car.

Actually I enjoyed working for Kal Tire back in the day. (High School)

I was honestly trying to see how professional you were.

[danno567]

Just found out today about part time work.

We are looking for some partimers. the work load is a balance between learning car tires, etc and cleaning the place up.

Let me know if you interested and we can get the ball rolling. The partime opp is great to get you in the door and see if you want to advance to full time, or make some spare dough while in school, etc.

hours would be mon - fri afternoons , say some hours between 7am - 7pm, etc. Sat work could be a full days worth.

thanks

Dan.

[danno567]

if you are interested in either partime or full time pm me, as I will be meeting with some people on sat in westhills for coffee to discuss the job, etc.

Thanks!

[danno567]

interviewing for part time work, and also a fulltime office admin position, so if you know of any office admin people, or others who want a job in the shop let me know!


thanks

[Anton]

Sweet, I start tomorrow!

Looking forward to working with all of you, say "Hi!" to me, look for a guy that doesn't know what he's doing :D

[LudeRoca]

i had my first day there today. Start off by doing paper work and some online training. After lunch you get a tour and then you get to get your hand dirty. Did some tire rotations and stuff like that. Pretty fun environment.

[AllGoNoShow]

Anton theirs alot of that for the first little bit, no worries though bud!

If any of the new guys got questions make sur eyou ask Dan or someone up front, don't get screwed over because you didn't ask.

[dubious]

interested but are there any positions for apprentices?

[AllGoNoShow]

Yup there sure is :) Shoot dan your Resume and current contact number!

[danno567]

Thanks James.

Guys James is right. Come see me or any of the front staff if you have questions about ANYTHING. You always want to make sure safety is first, and that we enjoy the time we spend at work. Like any job we got to get the work done, and done well but we also want noone getting hurt.

Anton, if you dont know what to do, or there isnt any cars to work on, the first thing to do is ask your supervisor what can you do next. They love that and it just shows that your there to work, and get ahead. If you have any questions or need me to help you with some training, ask me anytime! I will set time aside and give you a hand.

Jass, you did AWESOME yesterday man! Keep it up! Just keep asking questions and if we are slow, grab a broom and start cleaning up and keep our shop spotless!

Remember to ALWAYS use your ear and eye protection too man. Its serious stuff and you want to keep your sight and hearing man!

[Tha VZA]

crazy how i might be 'senior' over a handful of guys already!!

Dan's right about the protection...certain situations make sure you use them...

ciao

[LudeRoca]

thanks dan. Im tryin to learn the stuff as quick as possible. Everyone theres is nice. If i have any question people always there to help. Its not a job that you can just guess or hope for the best. I think the hardest part was using the tire machine. but im gettin the hang of it.

[danno567]

dont sweat it Jass, it will come and soon you will be training the new guys! Just keep asking questions and take your time to do things right.

It will come trust me.

See you there today!

-Dan.

[danno567]

Hey Ray, glad to see you yesterday! Congrats!


:thumbsup:

[ecstasy_civic]

Shaun

[danno567]

pm'd you Shaun. We are looking for a few more guys. Have hired quite a few so far!

[danno567]

hey shaun when are you scheduled for an interview?

[Anton]

Anyone looking at this and wondering what it's like or what kind of atmosphere it is, it's great. Good group of guys, fun work. Stressful at first but only for a little while.

Very nice looking rims and good tires too. Really hard to keep your paycheck to yourself....

[LudeRoca]

its a cool place to work. Time flys like crazy. The management there is awsome. Only stress is learning to use the machines but once you try it you'll learn it quick. Im in car side but im reallly intersted in truck side. GOnna try to go there if i can.

[danno567]

right on jass learn as much as you can on car side for a few more months, then when we are slow on car side, ask your supervisor if you can go help out on truck side and for sure they will love you to learn more man.

keep at it and always ask questions !
