i sold people what they NEEDED not what best buy wanted them to have.
|
I'm exatly the same way over in the computer dept. I absolutely hate working there as a tech because I take my 9yrs experience with pride and they turn the whole computer repair industry into a circus with their "speed packs" and "system customizations"
that's why I'm buckin for a full-time spot on the sales floor, I'd rather be out selling than be their tech bitch that gets cussed out hourly for half what I make doing the same shit elsewhere.
okay, that was totally off topic but damn.... some things just get me started... sorry.

if you are wantin to become a full time installer, certifications are a definate pay booster but if you are wantin to work at best buy for a while or ever compete as a novise you should hold off in those.

what hes basically saying is that its lame to compare your skills to a best buy installer cuz they are not certified (mostly), they are just more resourceful then you or me (tools, kits, equip, supervisor, etc.. .)
i guarantee you any tardo can get a job installing at best buy, h4bangin did =D

the reason he said that is cause he had to replace the sockets on it, plus rewired his bumperlights to come on with the parking lights.

just becaues you can rewire your stock lights to do something different doesn NOT make you an installer.
If you want to impress me, do an alarm and remote start in a 2003 Ford Mustang. you will need to diode isolate the door triggers so the alarm doesn't go off every 45min. also tell me why you need all the ignition keys when doing the remote start.
and please explaine the difference between 5-wire door lock interface and 2-wire, and how it relates to this mustang.
if you could tell me why you need to do this and how many diodes you need, I will truley be impressed.
and that recent post on the "alarm in a 4g how-to" HA! if anyone follows those directions........ well I think you get my point.
