Our local dealer has a higher turnover rate for employees than frickin McDonalds. Even Starbucks pays $10 hr (to start)

I shock my Tech or Part guy everytime he talks to me. If I shop for clothing I just look for the best looking lady on the floor.

Cant say it any better brother. I dropped my bike off this weekend to get some work done. Walked up to the service rep and told him I needed to get some stuff done, he said "kool whutcha need?". I told him I needed to replace the IPB since it was supposed to be done at 15k, and I've got over 17k on the ticker right now. He asked "why?" I explained why it was supposed to be done, he states he never heard of that, and called the service manager to question my request. Of course I was right, dumb a$$. Then I proceeded to advise the service manager that yes it was supposed to be done at 15k not at 20k, dumb a$$. Since I was going to have the primary apart, I wanted to have them upgrade the grenade prone stator on the 06 street bob. Twittle dee and twittle dumb asked why? So I provided another period of instruction, DUMB A$$'s. So they did up the work order for the IPB, stator upgrade, and the 15k service. Sent me to the parts counter where i wish I had taped the whole converstation from the service department, because I went through the whole thing again. They even took the information I provided and made pen changes to their books. And do you think they even offered me some swag for doing their job for them, HELL NO!!
