Oh, how the mighty have fallen… Let’s face it. The economy is in shambles, business are filing bankruptcy daily, and the unemployment rate is at a record high! As Bumblebee finds out first hand, even the Autobots are prone to unemployment. Now that Sam Witwicky has grew up to become an ungrateful douche, he fired Bumblebee as his guardian to pursue a “normal” life. Also, with the Decepticons and “The Fallen” defeated, there is just not much to do for an unemployed Autobot.
As with humans, when your financial circumstances become dire, many move into one of the oldest profession. Sales.
Bumblebee is found working at a local Chevrolet dealership, trying to promote the new Chevy Camaro line. The once proud Auto warrior has become nothing more than walking billboard, forced to transform in front of potential customers to entice them to purchase a car. Maybe he should have turned into a Toyota instead. He might make better commission.
