Do they make you work at the aiport rent a car centers?

There are quite a few ERAC places around my city of seattle. The hours of every single one is usually 7:30-6pm M-F and 9am-12pm on saturday (sunday off). If i get a position with enterprise will they stick me at their location near the airport where their hrs are until 11pm 7 days a week, or do you get to choose where you work? somehow im thinking i will end up at seatac airport :(

During you first nine months, your ARM (area rental manager) will "try" to keep you close to where you live. They do try to limit your amount of driving to no more than a 30 mile radius of your home.

They don't "make" you work at the airport, however, they will "offer" it to you and most likely, you will take them on their offer. You will be told that you were "accepted" to the much regarded BEST PERSON Plan and it would highly benefit your career to work at the airport.

As for the hours you listed, well, that's for the customer's benefit and may not necessarily reflect your own. You will definitely have to come in before and can expect to leave well after 6pm.

However, if you did work at the airport, you will typically work only you scheduled hours. Overtime is not a daily occurance as in other branches. Other few points to consider for working at the airport: NO WASHING CARS, NO INSURANCE RENTERS, NO CASH CUSTOMERS, NO WEEKEND SPECIALS, and NO REPOs. You will will appreciate not having to do these soon enough.

Good luck!

I worked at 45B7 for four months after being transferred from 45NN and I wanted to kill myself everyday. All you do is write tickets at the counters, then when the customers arrive at the off site location you are standing there waiting right outside the shuttle like a fucking mexicans waiting to get selected at home depot. You then check your customer into the car and do it all over again. Don't expect you assistant managers to do anything, they will just watch you do everything and pretned that running "point" actually takes talent. I actually like my local branch better than the airport, at the airport time creeps, and you don't use your brain. I use to sleep at the counters following my Comfort Inn duties and would wake up when a customer would tap me on the shoulder. I quit at the airport and actually worked two weeks and did not sell one single person in those two weeks, it was great to actually sit there and be nice to a customer and then not have to try and gauge them for no commision CDW. THe airport is full of people on way too much coffee and who drive their ERAC sales cars to work because they are "lifers", it is enough to make you go literally insane.
