Hey to everyone here at badweb, thank you for welcoming me and holding off on the criticizing for now... Although this is my first posting EVER, I have poked around on here from time to time for the past 2 years. I can't begin to describe the amount of appreciation for this opportunity his holyness, DaveS, has given me. And those so called "shoes to fill" are more like 2 grand canyons side by side for me to fill with a spoon sized shovel at this point in time. (I feel the pressure) I'm sure it's going to be a little rough for me at first but I'm going to do everything I can to catch my mistakes well before they ever affect anyone here. I'm sure I'll be wearing a bracelet that says "WWDD" for the next 3-6 months. So that when I DO get screwed up and don't know what to do I can rub my chin, quirk a brow, and ask myself...what would Dave do...

As for requests...
I highly doubt I'd have a job to worry about if I implemented a discount above 10%.
Kandie, I don't quite have the experience yet to make any promises but your husband probably does. As you already know, you've got till the 10th: ) (best of wishes to the both of you in your pursuit of happiness)

I'm pleased to see that my grooming standards are up to par for ALMOST everybody lol.

And since my Internet Explorer is acting up, I'm going to have to cut this a little short but I will have more to say after some sleep.

With everything said, I'm really looking forward to hearing about some darn good experiences and doing my best at keeping everyone as happy as my abilities allow me to.

-Andy

P.S. Penny, I hope you don't get mad at me if one morning you wake up...say...sometime in August and you see a bunch of Buells parked in front of your house.
I know myself along with a number of others are going to miss having Dave around and will need to see how his dream unfolds for him: )

Good night everyone.

I guess the real question is it Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke?

OR

What flavor Kool Aid?

My current cell number is 920 378 5920 (sorry i didn't include that with the "requests" part of my initial post). But I'm going to probably be changing companies due to lack of coverage from nextel. Since I'm sure I'll be putting even higher mileage on this riding season getting around to all the different events I'll be striving to be part of. Hopefully I'll be able to keep my same number. If not, I'll obviously post it again: )

As for the Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke...I'll probably just stick to water and Mountain Dew for the time being.

The only problem with long hair is actually GETTING it long without looking like crap so for now it'll have to be short...unless I lose a bet or something.(oops, a loophole)

But if anyone would like to talk, I'll be in from 9-2:30/3ish tomorrow.
Talk at yah later
-Andy

Andy will do a great job for Buell and Buell riders.
Of that, I am sure.
I did not recommend Andy for the job based on a vast knowledge, a sales background or any of the normal reasons someone else would look for(imagine that, me not doing things the normal way)
When I told the GM of the dealership about Andy and how I thought he would do a great job taking over the Buell stuff she asked me about his sales background. I told her, I don't think he has any. I got that look, I am used to it, the look of, what the hell do you mean?

I wanted Andy for the job for one reason.
He cares. You can't train someone to care.
If you care about what you are doing and the people and reasons you are doing it, everything will work it's way out.
I have always said " there is no magic wand"
but over the last few weeks, as I think about how great the Buell business has been to me and look ahead to my new adventure, I realize I may have been wrong all these years.
I have begun to think maybe there is a magic wand after all.
The magic wand is, you have to care.
If you care, everything else is easy.

Andy cares. Knowing that, I can rest easy, knowing all my friends will be well served.

I had the pleasure of talking to Andy today on the phone, he's a cool cat and a buell lover like the rest of us, and very stoked about his new job. Once again welcome Andy.

My current email is beiser5140@fvtc.edu I'm hoping to get set up with a harley email in the very near future. Say...next week.

I apologize if I'm a bit delayed on replies, I didn't want to screw over my boss and other employees at my other job so I'm going to be swinging both of these positions until the 15th. After that, I'm 110% Buell and all who embrace it, plus 1 college course in the mornings lol.

Thank you for your support Dave. I think EVERYONE knows by now that I couldn't have ever reached a position like this without the help of someone with as much insight as you. Or from someone who has the amount of intestinal fortitude and weight behind their word as you. And for that, you already know I am and will always be greatful for allowing me this chance to keep caring for your already well cared for customers, me having been one of them.(even if it was for only 2 years)

I'll hopefully see yah sat. morning before I work.

Andy

Hi Andy, looking forward to dealing with you for the "French Connection" hope Daves explained about not using Useless Parcel Service.
Cheers for now, Grumpy.

BIG WELCOME Andy! If Daves thinks you're okay and the man for the job, then I'm sure you are and we will all be in good hands. I look forward to doing business with you!
