thats good to hear. on a side note I find it interesting that you have to take a drug test. I have never heard of that for an instal job.

Well pretty good news is that i started, and right now we're just working on opening up the store. This week i'm at our store setting up but next week my supervisor said they'll be sending me to a nearby store to get some hands on training. So I'm glad it worked out. I plan on keeping the job for a while, and going fulltime so i can be eligible for the tuition reimbursement. And hopefully i can get a lot of hands on with many different vehicles and help others out on this forum who have questions!

Thats great man, I have been working as an installer for best buy for sometime now and can tell you this listen to any advice given from anyone you can, but always take it upon your self to learn as much as you can. Enjoy your time in the bay.
Let me do my job, then you can enjoy my work and thank me. :)

Big box stores have the money to drug test everyone they hire.  The last thing they want to do is hire a drug addict to work around all their merchandise.  I believe it's more of loss prevention thing then anything else.

Well i had my first day of "training" at a nearby store today. It was ok the senior installer was cool, as far as the way he did installs there were a few differences between him and i, but that's not a bad thing everyone has their own thing, and i respect that. I plan on staying with Best Buy for a while and try to get fulltime so i can get tuition reimbursement, and just plain to learn how different cars are setup.
