Great video Uncle Bogie! Thanks for bringing us along. Love your moto vlogs!

Cheers bud thank you

[@kimdommermuth6410]

Loved being able to meet you at the new job !

[@UncleBogator]

Loved it! Cheers

[@vinniemadrox]

Hey man, ironically I also got a job in parts at a harley dealer, Shoreline Harley-Davidson in westomg branch, New Jersey. I've been there almost 2 months now. Wild how you're already a manager, I'm just learning how to modify inventory

[@UncleBogator]

Well take that with a grain of salt. I come from almost 2 decades of successful retail leadership. I don't need to know the nuts and bolts (get it?) of the inventory piece of it right away. But teaching a team how to sell is where my expertise is. Grats on the job though my man! Hop you like it. I do

[@paulgregory8220]

I'm 67 almost 68 and have unemployed for 2 weeks in my entire life. Retired for 5 years and no complaints. 55 years and some rough times but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Not complaining life has been pretty good to me

[@roymctarsney5655]

Congratulations to you on all of your present and future endeavors. Wishing you every success…

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers my man thank you

[@brettcreech3490]

Good luck Unc.😎

[@UncleBogator]

Thanks bud!

[@bilgerat1066]

I completely understand what you are saying about losing motivation I'm four months down from shattering my knee and unable to walk enough to get back to work but the mental health takes a hit, good luck with the business

[@TheGorillaBiker]

I've worked construction, in a mill and have been in engineering since I was out of college. I hate it. But it pays the bills and keeps me on my visa. Good on you trying different things now that you can. I'd always have to do something as well, definitely couldn't sell things I don't think :D Definitely would like to see a pressure washing video, best of luck with it!

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers bud!

[@garyehrhardt3136]

Less stress you're much better off, stress is unhealthy, good luck

[@williamjordan6594]

I love the Moto vlog's . I retired a little early a few years ago and I got a part time job driving for Enterprise and I love it . Can't just sit around I need a purpose and I love to drive and the job is low stress . You obviously love motorcycles and found a job where you can be around them and be around like minded people and learn another side of the business sounds like a win win . Good luck my friend with your new gig and side gig and welcome to Deland .

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers my man

[@TyFromTennessee]

I get it man. Life usually doesn’t go according to plan. My wife is the breadwinner with our family but I do enjoy what I do. (IT guy). Take care and best of luck to you.

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers my man!

[@upchuckchops]

I hope the business takes off for you.

[@archasaurus]

As a former metric parts guy....welcome to the club. The big money is out on the floor (selling high dollar apparel/accessories), not just staying behind the counter selling nuts and bolts. I would do it again in a heartbeat if 1. no weekends and 2. it paid enough to support my family. Maybe you could do dealer videos for them (their KZbin channel or new/used bike reviews)? Good luck.

[@rasmusmller2587]

Perhaps make KZbin videos of some of the unique parts that you sell from time to time. Like a Tech Tip Thursday type of deal 😎🏍️👍🏻

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Love the channel man, you seem like a good dude.

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers bud! Thanks

[@markmcintosh7095]

Good to see you back at work.

[@heathjohnson2575]

I've been in parts for 14 years and want to work at harley but their pay is crap.

[@UncleBogator]

Every dealer is probably different. I’d be curious to see the difference between Harley and other brands

[@PinksAdventures]

Awesome my man!!...all the best on the new job and the new business!!...thanks for sharing...stay safe out there!!😎👍🤙👍🤙🇨🇦

[@UncleBogator]

Cheers bud!

[@Larryburnell]

As a business owner my best advice I can give you is to find a good accountant to do your itemized taxes, it costs you nothing as it's cost is also tax deductible, and ask them questions on what makes their and your life easier on handling receipts and bills. Good luck with your work and business.👍

[@UncleBogator]

good tip

I have been self-employed with my commercial/industrial electrical contracting business with up to 45 employees since 1997, architectural and electrical engineering business since 2003. Best advice I can give anyone self-employed is, get a good CPA.

[@UncleBogator]

Good advice

[@t.Mooney]

KZbin is really screwing with your channel. This is the third video in a row that just doesn't show up in my subscriptions box. And I didn't get any type of notification or anything.

[@whuddle]

Pressure washing! Ive been at it 10 years or so. Nice setup! Give me a shout if you have any questions 🤟

[@whuddle]

Lawn signs work great for me, if you don't get hastles by the cities.

Quit engineering about three weeks ago, and a toxic work environment. My jkbs were almost all toxic. Work at a Harley franchise, a good one, the only good one in my area. Keeps me healthy.

[@UncleBogator]

Excellent

[@andrewfaircloth1074]

I found that sleeping under an overpass and begging for money was more toxic than any job I ever had.

I could be wrong, im not sure what axle is under that trailer...but if you fill that water tank, would that not grossly put that trailer over its weight limit? Lol

[@UncleBogator]

We don't fill the tanks and haul them around. It's just a buffer used onsite.

[@vinny932]

Good for you. I worked for a Harley Dealer for 4 months in Parts. Manager was a nasty mean old man. I quit. LOL

This is my 2nd attempt at a dealer. So far so good

I wonder what's different between bikes and GM. So far doesn't seem too overwhelming.

[@Superglide96899]

@UncleBogator me too I'm thinking volume and in the car world people except now and the world and its there only mode of transportation so there already not happy but I want to know myself

[@dracphelan]

As someone who has been self-employed, get a CPA. You do not want to owe the IRS.
