Hey this is Keith. Cool site.

[tike0rz]

Um what? What is this Audi Academy thing?

[RS2 Avant]

It's a training program for Audi technicians who are just starting out. There's one in Arizona and one in Pennsylvania.

[iqiskill]

Support DTM tuning! visit GenesisAutosport if you're in the SoCal area!

[iqiskill]

I will post pics of graduation sometime tomorrow. If you have pics please post!

[AndyWu111]

happy new years!

[vacsimile]

haha, that's awesome! And so you guys know, the Q5 SSP is out now on the Academy site. 20 questions.

[AndyWu111]

LoL. Sweet. Q5 SSP. How was it?

[iqiskill]

has anyone gotten close to a job yet? i submitted 2 resumes and phones 3 friends. still nothin.

[Bawston]

I have not gotten anything yet, though I am going to meet some folks at a dealer today. I asked them if they are hiring and they said they are always looking for new people.



BTW wtb more grad photos

[iqiskill]

i tried to e-mail sherry twice @ [email protected] and failed both times.(downgrade!!) have y'all tried recently?

[vacsimile]

Did your emails bounce or you just didn't get a response? I've emailed her at that address and gotten a response since we graduated. I'm no closer to a job.

[Bawston]

I've only sent 1 email giving her an update on monday but I havent heard anything back from her yet, it seems we are on our own. I guess I could try Barb to see if Sherry has been out for some reason, but I'm not too worried as long as I dont get billed

[iqiskill]

it bounced
i got a side job! mazda 60k service! im getting all the parts for 50. hehehe time to "rape and pillage"

[AndyWu111]

Yea, I have the same problem with Sherry, i email her like Jan 3 and have not got response at ALL. And since i been sick i cant make phone call (sore throat) and cant go out. DAM this really suck. And yea btw where the hell is everybody ELSE at???

[Lurker1222]

Yo yo yo peoples!!! (It's Mark!)
Awesome to be on here!
Update: Jesse Hutcher (the service manager at Champion) ended up never calling me back or returning my email. Sherry sorta made it clear that he hired someone else but it wasn't for sure and I wanted it to hear it from him. So that's still in the air.
That's the bad news. The good news is that just an hour ago Sherry called me and said that the OTHER champion Audi in coral springs has one, maybe two positions open. She emailed him my resume tonight and I am to call him tomorrow morning, hopefully for an interview! Nothing set in stone yet but we'll see how it goes. (Wish me luck)

It's great to see you all here. I have 12343420394803204923 grad pics so I'll post a bunch here.

















More to come

[Lurker1222]

Damn how do I post these as thumbnails like Austin did?

[vacsimile]

You're clearly not as cool as I am.

But I'll give you a hint: The thumbnails are separate files. Photoshop actions ftw!

[AndyWu111]

WTF? That bitch never got back to me. ANYWAY. MARKY MARK!!!! ANd about Grad picture just look me up in FaceBook or something. Andy WU.

[iqiskill]

heh... i miss-spelled the e-mail address! btw some time in march, my old shop is moving to a bigger place, there will be a big ass gtg and of course lots of dtm, maybe some jdm. i will keep you posted on that.

[Lurker1222]

Ready for it........


TAKE THAT RYAN!

[Lurker1222]

And in other news. Just got back from the interview. It was pretty short and simple.. about 1/2 hour. Compared to the other one which was 2 hours! Don't know if I got the job... This sucks so bad not knowing. Probably wont know until the end of the month but the interview went as well as one could go so I don't see why I shouldn't get it. Ugh... Starting to see how shitty this is gonna be... 2 interviews and no job. Like a cock tease.

[Lurker1222]

Wu, link your face book cause theres like a million andy wu's and they are all private so I can't tell which is you.

Those are mine

I e-mailed Sherry a new list of dealers last Saturday and she got back to me on Monday but she hasn't gotten back to me since. I am still unpacking shit in St. Louis after driving here from Phoenix and I'm freaking exhausted.

[Lurker1222]

Sup Eric!

According to your little graphic there, Jesse is crying and Chang is on crack.

That's still 2 more interviews than most of us have had.

[RS2 Avant]

Hey, have any of you emailed Sherry for a current hiring list? I can't open it to view it again because it was a microsoft excel document, I used my sisters computer. Anyway, they were all northeast... Maryland and Ohio if I remember correctly. Any takers? LoL I guess some peeps from the other class went to fill the Manhattan spots. heh...



Hello Pep Boys 4Life!

I didn't know there was a current hiring list...? The last few dealers I asked her to contact were in Maryland. Hmm...

[vacsimile]

Yeah, she just told me that there wasn't much on the list and she'd let me know as jobs appeared on it. But the whole Ohio-and-Maryland thing is new to me.

I think that Sherry is a robot that randomly generates replies.

[Lurker1222]

And to think that there is gonna be another 15 people piling into the "system" in the next few weeks. They really need to put a hold on the academy. The market is way to saturated at the moment.
