And they strike again...West County Honda hired John K. Priest, alleged scam artist, to recruit new employees. He holds "training" for three days, leading 23 people into believing they will be hired as sales people for the dealer. Third day he tries to sell a couple pamphlets for $299 to trainees - when point blank asked if the purchase of pamphlets would lead to a sales position being "secured" at the dealership, he stated "those who purchase will have a star by their name and the dealer will know who invested in it when they come in to make their final decision, but decide for yourself"...wink-wink, nod-nod. What is even more appalling, is thinking about how much he brags on his lifestyle of nice homes and cars and six figure incomes that he and fellow sales managers make...all the while he's inventing ways to take $300 from unemployed workers that are desperate to find a job so that they can keep their modest homes and cars.

Shame on you John K. Priest, Shame on YOU!

Shame on West County Honda!

Shame on anyone who hires people like this to recruit new employees...if they are willing to deceive their own employees, what do they do to their customers?

If there aren't enough customers coming into the dealership to screw over, they have to find SOMEONE to screw over. If they aren't screwing over customers, they're screwing over their own employees. And, if they aren't screwing over employees, they're screwing over potential employees. They can't help themselves. Have known a few car dealers. They sit around and talk and brag about all the customers they have screwed over, gipped, ripped off, got over on and made fools of, the way some other guys; caught the big fish, hit the big homer, scored the winning run, got the hot chick. They talk of the "good old days" before the internet, when they could make $10 to $12,000 profit on a vehicle. They're always thinking of new ways to screw people over, new scams, new ways to seperate people from their money. Every car salesmen I've known, looks at every person as a "mark" sizing them up as a potential sucker to be fleeced. I wonder how much county honda made off this little class? Figure $100 to $150 times 23 equals $2,300 to $3,450. Most dealers hire new guys and put them in used cars to learn how to screw people over. They'll hire a new guy let him sell to his family and friends and dump him a couple of weeks later unless he's good at screwing people. Just look at the help wanted ads. Dealers hire hundreds of new people each year. It takes a "special" kind of human being to be a car salesman. I do know a couple of exceptions though, they are far and few between.
