No. Two totally different jobs.

Service greeter meets people, parks and retrieves cars as needed.
Service advisor must deal with people who own said cars.

PM me if you have any questions. I've been a ruthless whore for dealerships for the better part of 5 years and have done pretty much every job they offer except mechanic. I know the ins and outs of the soulless beasts like few others.

There is no possible way you'll get that kind of money for the car.

Congrats! Beaverton Honda? Buying Bob? Yes. Now the question is can you get me parts for cheap?

Yep. And not yet. The discount is for employees only and most people know I don't drive a Honda so it would be a bit difficult to explain why I'm buying all these parts to put on a Hyundai.
