From what I've heard, IRA let him go. I haven't spoken to him in ages. I still have his cell # although I'm guessing he's disconnected it since.

That doesn't make much sense. Why would they let their best salesman go?

maybe they're really into promoting from within.. to the point that they'd need to move a guy like him out. never really understood the car business anyway...

Well, I just called IRA and the receptionist gave me what little info she had. Apparently, Dan and one of the managers were not getting along. One day, a guy from high up in the IRA corporate structure came and watched as Dan cleared out his desk and left. So, I don't get the impression that Dan left of his own accord. Also, that manager guy is also no longer working for IRA. So, maybe they both got canned. The receptionist felt very bad about it, as everyone liked him.
I then spoke to another salesman who sounded like maybe it wasn't a firing. He said that Dan was feeling burnt out and left on his own, but not necessarily on good terms. He also said that the manager guy left on very good terms and would be welcomed back at any time. So, it doesn't sound like that guy was fired.
He thinks that Dan might be out of the car business altogether now.

makes sense... i talked to the guy for a few months before i actually was able to get into the dealership to purchase. seemed his wife lived down the cape somewhere, while he had a place up here... got maybe one day a week off, probably never saw the fam. i dunno if i'd have traded his success for that.  |
