well i applied for the position of Shop Manager in the bike section of Ski Country Sports in asheville. I would basically oversee the repairs, make sure the wrenches have everytihng they need to do their jobs, do some sales (kona and giant) as well as do the ordering of hard goods. The shop is a full service bike/ski/snowboard shop.

Good luck mang. Most bike jobs don't pay much but when your major expense is biking it may work out the best. Would you get health insu if you decide to make your wrist all limp and hamburgery again?

Good luck biggins.

Now that you get to look at bikes all day... Are you going to get fired in six months for excessive and inappropriate postings at OfficeApe.com?
