Im looking for a quality job, you know the type with some sort of benifits and ok pay and a boss who can still be your boss without being the anti-christ. I dont think Im asking a whole lot there, so I put my resume out and fill out applications etc and one day I notice theres a new 4X4 shop opening.......(In my head Im screaming score!) so I go and drop off my resume. I dont hear anything for about a month so I figure its not going to happen then this morning I get a call and it basicly goes like this.
Him:Hi is this Dan?
Me:Yup thats me what can I do for you?
Him:Im Rick and you dropped off your resume at my shop a few weeks ago.
Me:Oh cool
Him:I see you have a lot of off road experience and a good deal of equipment experience, you went to UTI and build your own parts now.
Me:Yeah I do, Id like to try and make a living from my hobby now and get away from working on things bigger than a house.
Him: (laughes) I can understand that. Id like to offer you a job but I dont think I could pay you enough to keep you. Your over qualified
Me:Well why dont I come to the shop later today and we talk about it, Id really like something close to home and Im flexable on the pay at this point
it goes on for another couple minutes of us both asking questions and Im still going to go talk to him but a recurring statement was that Im over qualified to work in his shop. I dont understand that, to me if I could get a guy with good experience good skills and a willingness to work on something he enjoys doing for less than if he were working farther from his home Id be all over highering the guy.
Anyone have some insight
Ill post up again after I go talk with him this afternoon.
