Hi, feel free to TL;DR , this is for the members who like a good read.

Basically been working for the same place for the last 17 years as a mobile phone technician. My old boss who's health was failing sold the buisness back in May to someone I knew, and knew him to be an a$$hole.
I was the first person in NW England, possibly even the UK repairing mobile phones..and my new boss wants to turn the shop basically into a sales only shop, no repairs.

This has been going on for the last six months but decided today that enough was enough. The guy was a typical know it all boss...wouldn't respect my knowledge or experience...he knew best...well, not any more.

I have a few offers in the pipeline so imma just have some time off Christmas and see what offer I take in the New year.

Ped :banned:

Thank's guys.

There is nothing worse than someone who doesn't know one end of a phone from another, telling you how to do you're job. Ain't happnin' I'm afraid.

Ped, good for you, I'm about ready to quit mine here in Iraq too, getting fed up with a coworker who has been breaking my things due to being mad about something he was doing I put a stop to out here which was bad news. The little arse broke all the mirrors off of the RGB laser I had bought from Bad Billy, continues to hide tools and personal items on me, later returning them, but getting very old.

Now that I know you work on cell phones, I have a question for you about mine. LOL, just kidding.

Well, good luck for your ex-boss with his mobile sales shop concept. I think growing number of people are ordering their mobiles from Online shops in these days, so he'll must be such a vanguard in his job when having a such great visions. :na::na:


Enjoy your break over Christmas, and good luck and all the best wishes for your new conquers!! :beer:

@ Ped, Sorry to hear the new boss is a numbskull.
Have a nice break from work over the holidays and then you'll be able to find a better position.
I'm sure you'll be in demand with your knowledge and expertise.
You'll have a bit of time to get out there with your drone now Ped.
:)

@ Chris, that's sad news to hear what that guy did to your RGB and the way he's acting towards you.
So, I take it that "The Land Downunder" is looking pretty inviting by now?
