The Bus Depot has an immediate opening for one or more full or part time
employees. I am hoping that we can find another VW enthusiast who would
like to make his or her hobby a full-time thing. That is why I'm starting
off by posting this message to the List.
Initially you will be doing mostly packing, shipping and receiving, but
after you have learned the ropes you will be dealing directly with
customers, recommending parts and taking orders, and handling customer
service issues. Full time hours (at this time) are weekdays 11 am to 7 pm,
with weekends off. Pay is about $10-$12 an hour; no "benefits" but you do
get all the parts you need for your bus at wholesale. You'll be working
directly with me and a handful of other employees; we're a pretty small
shop, both in physical size and number of employees.
It's a fun job in my opinion, but I'll warn you, it can also be very
frenzied, with the phone ringing off the hook and orders going out as fast
as the merchandise comes in. 90% of our business is mail-order, and things
never slow down from the minute we open 'til the minute we close. You'll be
eating your lunch with one hand and packing a box with the other, while
simultaneously holding telephone handsets between your chin and each
shoulder, with two more people waiting on hold. And that's on a slow day.
Okay, I'm exaggerating, but not by much. You need to be able to handle a
very fast-paced, non-stop atmosphere without pulling your hair out, or you
won't like this job. I rely heavily on my employees and need someone who is
responsible, motivated, energetic, intelligent, and in this for the long
haul. The Bus Depot is growing in leaps and bounds, so I think there is
plenty of potential in the long term for the right person.
We are located in the northwest corner of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
(about 1/2 hour from Allentown or Pottstown, 40 minutes from King of Prussia
or Reading, an hour from Philadelphia). Interested individuals should email
me directly at busdepot@email.com.
