Sweet office, i suppose i could have said what i do. My job is to handle all the service warranty claims for the dealership, which includes factory and extended warranties. I call the extended warranty companies to get repairs authorized and i determine how many hours a technician gets for warranty work he does. Also i do payroll for the service department.

Its pretty nice but I think my 5 year old desktop with 1.7 ghz P4 and 640 mb of memory could hand it its ass in performance.

My job can be fun...at times. But working on cars is not something I want to do for the rest of my life. It's extremely stressful and physically demanding. Back in the day an experienced Mercedes tech could make anywhere from $100-200k a year easily. Now the vehicles are harder to diagnose due to all the electronics and we get paid LESS to repair them. It's good money for now but I'm going back to school sometime next year so I can start an Automotive Engineering degree.

We'll stand up half gallons of milk, set them um like bowling pins, grab the turkeys that have the handle on them and.... you figure out the rest.

2.2, I can't see any pictures.
As for the rest of your questions about main and reserve parachutes both failing, it's extremely unlikely. I don't think it's ever happened at the drop zone I work at, and we've been open since 1982.
It is a USPA (US Parachute Association) regulation that reserves must be unpacked, inspected, and repacked every 120 days to avoid any problems due to being in a small container for a long period of time.
And actually, a woman in California just had an accident where one of her brakes didn't fire, and she was spiraling out of control, hit the ground at about 50 mph and survived. And she's pregnant.
It's actually very uncommon though. Most of the people that are involved in skydiving accidents are extremely overconfident.
