Today, I’ll tell you a story of when I worked at Team Charlotte Motorsports and Charlotte Honda. I was the webmaster/IT guy for about 2 years while I was in college for CS at UNCC. It was a fun job, got to work with a lot of different people, play with computers, and work in HTML, and javascript. I didn’t get to do any server-side stuff, but it was fun. It also gave me a lot of downtime for me to fiddle with other technologies such as ASP classic, java, shell scripting, PHP, and photoshop. I’ve never been a bike person, and as much as the sales poeple tried, they were unable to sell me on a bike. I did get to sit on a lot of them, they sure are heavy. I did get to ride some ATVs though, that was pretty fun, I had never ridden one before working there. I also learned a good bit about watercrafts, and watercraft safety.
Most of my day was spent taking pictures, writing descriptions, and posting prices and information on various ATVs and motorcycles. I’ve never been much of a rider, so my experience with them is pretty limited, but I do know prices pretty well. If you are looking for a good price AND free shipping, check out GoWarn.com, they have ATV winches at amazing prices, also if you are in the Charlotte area, feel free to check out Team Charlotte Motorsports or Charlotte Honda on Freedom Drive.
When I wasn’t messing with the website, I was maintaining the shop’s computers, printers, and network. I spent a lot of time cleaning spyware, updating software, and cleaning virus’. I was surprised how often people could get virus’ on their computers, it was crazy… and surprising to see what some of them were spending their time looking at on the web.
Until next time, enjoy your ride!
