  • They’ve been doing that for a long time too. I worked at a Chevy dealership circa 2009 and did dealer installed backup cameras on Silverado and remote start systems on Camero. The Camero was just new key fob and reprograming. The Silverado was a new tailgate handle and wiring, if it didn’t have an infotainment system then it got a new rear view mirror.

    On my Ford I was able to use a program called Forscan and activate remote entry that didn’t come from the factory even though the receiver was already included.

    Even my 1998 car had wiring in place for features that it didn’t come with because it was cheaper to make one harness for all models instead of different harnesses for different options.



  • It’s micromanaging. They don’t know how to lead properly. When I went through McDonald’s shift manager training they taught the concept of letting your workers do their job, so you could do yours. They literally said to work with your hands in your pockets so that you wouldn’t be tempted to take over and get distracted by going back to what you used to do. A Managers job is to provide their team with whatever they need to do their job effectively. A baseball coach wouldn’t go out on the field and bat or play the outfield.

    That manager probably started off doing the job you were doing and got promoted by kissing ass or being a toxic worker and therefore causing everyone else to leave/ perform lower because they were avoiding that person.
