I'm going to have to start breathing into a paper bag if this proceeds for too much longer.

has an appropriate amount of time passed for a follow up call?

Send 'em an email that looks suspiciously like an auto-generated form letter, then call them no more than 15 seconds after clicking Send

Immediately ask if they received your email and if they have time to talk about your great options, because they previously expressed interest in learning more about bringing on a new 2014 Salesperson

It was only yesterday, but I guess I should send them something. I will if I haven't heard back by the time I get home this evening.

a follow up call would show you're seriously interested in the job, but you might come off desperate if you call too soon

I will send an email. The call would have to wait at least another day or two for me.

Yep, follow up with a "nice meeting with you, let me know if you have any further questions" email. But I would wait to call.

Hasn't been very long, I wouldn't sweat it.

What's going on with the lot? What lot? Is there a car? Is it new? Repaired? GAH THIS IS SO VAGUE.

It wouldn't be such a big deal except they said that if after talking to the GM today, they could get me an offer, they would. The time table isn't what has me worried so much as the idea of the GM being like "I didn't meet this kid, but I don't like his credentials/work history" even though I completely blew the Sales Managers out of the water.

I have a job. With a huge corporation. I'm chained to a desk and a headset. Thus my need to get out and sell some cars!

I had an interview with a car lot yesterday. I crushed it. They said they'd call me today with an offer if they could get the GM to give one. I haven't heard back. I'm freakin out!

hey which lot did you apply to?

What kind of job will it be? They better call back to at least say "too bad, so sad." Good luck

Some days are just like this.

Hmm, possible I suppose but try and stay optimistic.

Or pessimistic. Then you may be pleasantly surprised. Just don't keep going through life like that, my ex-wife did that and she became miserable to be around. :)

no, I know. I've been following your quest for new employment.

*get a NEW job already!

Car Sales. I hope I hear from them today in some way, shape, or form. I hate waiting. I'm a go-getter. Don't like when I can't work my way things or push things through.

That's exactly how I feel.

"Oh I got this!"

"Wait I can't reach!"

"shitshitshitshit"

"Be cool man, be cool..."

I just try to make sure I know where all the exits in the room are. Does that metaphor make sense?

Very nice dealership. I was looking at touregs with a friend just last weekend. There's another guy here on Oppo that works there too!

I love it. VW has the cleanest dealership designs in the whole industry. And yeah, it's LiquidPopcorn, and he actually has been slowly but surely talking me into working there haha.

yeah I'll be honest I liked the VW dealer much more than the Acura dealer I went to right before, the Lexus dealer was definitely #1 though.

I'll be sure to hit you up if you get the job, a new Passat/Jetta is really on my sisters radar.

VW dealers are always top notch. It's part of the corporate culture. I'll be sure to let you guys know :)
