Pullin' the Year Out

Well, it's finally been busy in here.

Today I've done seven deliveries and grossed ten grand so far.

People are just going with the program.

This is how it should be all the time!

I hope all my readers in the F&I chair are having a fantastic 13th month.

Happy New Year!!!

November F&I Numbers

The rep from my captive just told me that if I had applied this kind of energy toward soliciting my service customers to buy ESC's, the November numbers would have looked better.

My month was actually pretty good, so I chose to be polite but basically ignored him.

This new rep had to have promised big increases in the numbers to get hired.

New reps are always fun to break in.

Happy Holidays!

Is it over yet?


This has been the most boring day I've had in a long time.

I have done nothing to justify the huge salary I'm being paid.

Well, the beautiful smokin' hot rep from Bank of America was in earlier today. I should try and take a picture of her and post it here.

More banks should hire extremely fine female reps. It would help pass the time. This one doesn't have any f&i experience either - ok with me.

Would you send business to a bank ONLY because the rep is super hot?

Think about it:

* Most banks hire their reps from the automotive finance field. Almost every one of them has had a tour of duty in a finance manager's chair. All became fed up with the bell to bell schedule and other misc. bulls**t and got out of retail. None of them will admit it.

* Are male F&I Managers so shallow that they would send business to a bank to the point of losing a few bucks on reserve or accepting a higher fee only because the hot female rep was pouting for more business? You can't just allow her to pout and look sad can you?

* What if every bank had only hot female reps? Imagine the catfights in the showroom.

Oh God, please let some deals happen to get my mind off of this.

I am married.
