Dick's Sporting Goods jobs

[TN94z]

Does anyone have an idea what a golf technician at Dick's Sporting Goods makes? I need a 2nd job to help pay some bills off.

[Monkey Wrench]

i would imagine just over minimum wage.

[Mattplusness]

they don't get discounts on golf items either :/

[jamo]

Depends on your resume, but not much over minimum wage.

[Bug Bunny]

At my local dick's, even knowing much about golf is not even a requirement!!! lol

[xxsoultonesxx]

they guys that work in the golf dept. at my local dick's are nice guys who at least play golf and know a fair amount about the equipment they have.

yea depends on resume a little but probably close to what a kid working in a chinese factory factory makes

Is this a joke?

Really? That would have been a nice perk. I am just toying around with some ideas. It wouldn't be needed for long. I just have some bills that need to be gone and I get impatient and want them gone now!!

kid working in a chinese factory factory

I'm confused. Is this a factory where they make Chinese factories? Or is it a Chinese factory where they make regular factories? There could be a big difference in pay.

If you live near a Costco check and see if they have any openings, the starting pay there is $15 hour.

Man that's some pretty good starting pay. But we don't have one near my area. Thanks

Depends entirely on where you live. But I'd say closer to 2-3 dollars over minimum. I have a comparable job at Lowes (a department sales associate) which is basically what it sounds like you're referring too, and I get paid 3 dollars above what the minimum wage is in my area. If it's going to be a 2nd job for you, it'd probably be something you'd enjoy since you wouldn't be on this forum if you weren't into golf, lol. It'd be a job I wouldn't mind having as a 2nd job.

A bag lady has more knowledge than most Dicks/GG sale reps.

lol, I meant a kid working in a chinese factory. Must of been a typo. I was referring to a sweatshop!!

Guy at the one by us says he gets everything cost + 10%

That's why if you go to Dick's you talk to the On-Staff PGA Certified pro, or assistant pro. Every Dick's has them, and they don't get that position without having credentials from the PGA saying they're Certified Golf Pros. When I go into my local Dick's (I love shopping there, probably because I'm from the town that the company was founded) I always talk to the PGA pro or his assistant. They know there stuff. The other guys, some of them know a bit, some don't know anything.
