hey now. Don't knock it!! Ever work at a company that literally looks out for their workers?? A few years ago I was in a meeting and one of the guys who was with me got his car stolen while the meeting was in session. The regional VP got wind of it after the cops showed up and cut a company check for the deductible on the guy's insurance. Another time a tech at one of our Tucson stores lost his house to a fire. Burned to the ground and he and his family escaped with just the clothes on their backs. The company cut him a check to buy new clothes, toys for the kids and the deposit and first month's rent on a new place until his insurance went thorugh.
It's things like this that make a company breed loyalty. It's true that the actual selling of tires and wheels isn't as glamorous as being a lawyer or doctor. But working for a company that gives me full authority to do the right thing when dealing with the customer's needs without ever having someone breathe down my neck or give me grief is something that no other company has. Ever see how happy a Walmart employee is?? Heh. Doesn't happen.
Our motto is and always be "To be the best. Our unique success is based on caring and cultivating our people, delighting our customers and growing responsibly." We want to be the best at waht we do. We want to constantly earn the right to call the people who come through our doors "our customers." And being a part of a team like that is worth more than any other profession can offer me. It drives me to come to work and high five my buddies and breeze through the day.
