i work at a car stereo shop call B's Car Stereo, doing all the stuff on this forum, everyday. its alot of fun. sometimes its boring, because we can get pretty slow, but overall its good.
i absolutely love remote start season, nothing better than doing 5-6 a day. im pretty quick too.
i am going to school for an associates degree in electronic engineering technology. if i could one day get a job assisting in the design of car audio amplifiers, id love it.

i worked doing hazardous waste operations and removals asbestos abatement and demolition for a long time until a few months ago. it took up too much of my time and i had to quit the checks were nice but i had no time to myself. now i work at the anchorage daily news. not nearly as much pay but i get to come home every night and dont have to go away for weeks at a time.

i worked as a radiographer on the north slope for 2 weeks

Well everybody here already knows about Car Godz Custom Concepts... my heart and soul passion that I've been doing for 6 years now, after doing many one off custom jobs, working as a light line tech, and many back yard mechanics jobs... decided it was time to go out and do it as a business... everything from car audio, wheels, body kits, performance packages (nitrous & turbos included

), still it's been more of a hobby type job, but someday will give it 100% of my time.
Now what some people know is that I have a part time morning job at Menards running the autoscrubber http://www.karcher.ca/CCE/Floor_Care_Web_Pages/BD%20Trike.htm, yup I get to ride around on that for about 4-5 hours every morning. I use this money to go towards medical insurance, plus I get a lil discount at a hardware store (which is what Menards is - kinda like Lowes & H.D.).
Now for what only a few know about... I also own and operate my own cleaning business (residential & small business) and have been doing that for over 20+ years... I really can't stand cleaning, but I love most of the long term clients we have like extended family... plus it's what pays the bills

Do you ever "accidently" spill bleach on the floor just so you can do some smokey burnouts... Does it have posi traction?

"have you ever taken it off any sweet jumps?"

Yeah, thats the bad thing about outside work. Thats why I decided to get the job I have now, I know exactly how much my checks will be and I have decent health insurance... I still work side jobs when I feel like it, which lately hasnt been very often. :happy055:
