r3j3ct took the time to get an education and to learn how to do software development. Perhaps if you spent less time with your homies and hoes, and more time learning and applying yourself, you might be able to find a better job. But I doubt that'll happen.
Guest: It feels good to be out of frys, Landed a job with Oracle!
Nough Said.. frys sucks!

Not sure this is an upgrade.
Guest: Nice, wasn't 5 years ago the best year to work for Frys? I know some people got locked into a decent hourly rate.
r3j3ct: I shall update this thread, moved on to being a software dev myself. $45k at Fry's to $60k starting, will eventually make my way up to $100k. Awesome!
Guest: I used to work in the Service Dept as a Technician in a Bay Area store. My last year (~4 years ago) I made around 34k. I now make 86k/year working about 35 hours a week, and stress free... So yeah, according to your title I moved on and ended up better.![]()

To both of you, I also worked at 21! I started in late-2008 so I am not sure if I had an opportunity to meet you.

I was out on workers comp at that time. I was the one who came back from it and almost immediately gave my two weeks notice. ASM (can't think of his name right now) was asking how much they were paying me to start. He replied that sales associates can make that much. I asked him if they got that working mon-fri 8-5 with two weeks vacation starting and pension. He got mad, tried to get me to stay for "spending all that money to fix my shoulder" and told him nope. Walking out the door the last day was one of the most liberating moments of my life.
Josh: Ah, I don't think I had the chance to meet you, or maybe it was extremely brief. I started in late October 2008.
Was Andy the Store Manager yet when you were working? I know Andy just transferred to the Store around the same month I was hired. When I was being interviewed, Danilo was still the AVDM; by the time I was hired, he was the CSM.
Cervantes: There seems to be 3 kinds of employees I've seen at Fry's.
1. Assholes who think they are going to be rolling in commission dough. They're total sharks to new employees and half the time end up pissing off the customers because they're so pushy and rude. Sometimes if they stay long enough they end up as managers. Store managers even.
2. Total weirdos who may have some kind of mental illness. They're nice, and I'm the sort of person to encourage and embrace unconventional people, but some of these guys come off as only a couple of rungs above the crazy homeless man who bites dogs.
3. Nice guys who are decently sharp and could really go somewhere, but they've unfortunately settled, thinking Fry's is the best they can do. Sad, because they seem like people who could legit do good work, but instead they're wasting their life at Fry's.
