I hear all of you......very good advice. Thanks.

At the time I was getting shafted by a small BMW/Porsche dealership. The job before that ..............same deal when the economy hit the skids. I'm a technician. My pay is based soley on production. No worky- no eaty . It's tough business even when it's ..........."good"

I wanted an opportunity and needed to move on from the previous dealer. I needed to eat.
There were only 3 postions at the time open in my commuting area. This I thought was the best ....................

Actually it was the best choise then. The first one I had a contact inside that looked good and the business 'appeared' in good shape. 6 months later that business started to hit the skids and she was let go. Business "B" had a bad reputation and ownd by some shady middle-easterners. They needed someone with my exprience to lead the shop.

I did some checking with local vendors and this place seemed and was the best ........or maybe the least worst choice.

I guess the worst part is I have tons of time, energy, effort in turning the place around. Dueller was right - shame on me ( and I know better) for not looking into his books more thoroughly
