  1. I'm moving down to the Baltimore/DC area soon and I am in the process of looking for a new job. I am pretty fresh into the workforce, as I just got my degree in economics in July 08. I am currently auditor for a magazine auditing firm, where excellent customer service is an absolute necessity. I am looking for anything in finance, auditing, etc, basically anything that will start a career in finance. Any help or pointers is much appreciated!

  2. First off this isn’t going to be another one of those “I got caught bumping” threads...

    So the Tuesday after Memorial Day I left my apartment for work and got pulled over for allegedly running a red light….I pled not guilty. So I got a letter in the mail saying that the prosecutor was going to review my case and that if I had anything that would help me to mail it in. Well I did just that. My case was that where the cop was parked she could have not seen the light because of blocked trees and a bus, EVEN if she could have it wasn’t safe for me to stop (by the way, the light was 100% yellow as I entered the intersection).

    I went on to plead my case in the page long letter with about 10 pictures, diagrams, bus schedule, maps, addresses, and the law about not being able to safely stop.

    Well in the end, the other day I got a letter in the mail saying all charges were dropped, no fines, fees or anything was due and the DMV would be notified. :)

    What a feeling it was…

  3. no o scope, no business. There are two types of shops.

    1: A shop in which they sell car audio and know how to put those items in your cars.

    2: A shop in which they sell the person the correct piece of car audio that works best for them, for the amount of money they are willing to spend. They know how to install the products and get them perform to their optimal performance capability and perform safely.

    mmmm I will definately be cautious :)

  4. So I just finished installing my equipment this past weekend, and I wanted to use an o-scope to set the gains (I did the 3/4 ear deal, but just like the extra security). So I call up a local shop and ask if they have one, and they said they dont need one, the only way they would need to use one is someone was strapping amps or two amps to a DVC. He then goes on to tell me they are way to expensive to have when you would only get a few uses out of it. Then says that there only a few shops in the state that have them (I'm in CT).....is this common??? After scrolling around the forums...oscopes seem to only be a few hundred that would suffice car audio....that cant be too much for a shop...

    Just wondering if this was common cuz I know guys on here own or work at a shop...

  5. sound like your the one doing the install.

    and by snipping/spliccing removing the factory wires making it impossible to ever go back to stock is pointless.

    How can you or your buddy, or whoever the master installer is that is taking this mission on not knowing what to do with a remote wire spend a good $15,000 on a new car, but not buy a $10 harness to do it professional...

    HACKS!

    wow um....I'm not installing anything, look at the OP....its not me. I have a tc as well so i thought I would be able to help him and not get bashed for not doing something

  6. The white wire he listed is the factory wiring that goes from the factory headunit to the factory amp to turn it on..

    From the way it sounds from him listing the vehicles wires, he snipped the plug like a idiot cuz spending 10 bucks on a wiring harness to keep factory plugs intact was not worth while on a brand new vehicle.

    The wire he needs is a blue wire comming out of the headunit... Its always blue, and if he bought the wiring harness it would be a piece of cake.

    wait...i'm an idiot? it just sounds like he wants to splice

  7. mmm I dont know if the upgraded HU is supposed to just have a factory harness or hell I dont know what the back looks like at all. Use what the guy said above. Or here is the diagram...

  8. Ok, I know there will be liberal bashing as usual. But I was curious of what people thought of the new 60th senate vote (Franken). So far I am about 85% happy with Obama and his policies. I feel like the Republicans are constantly offering nothing when they oppose something, and the only way they are happy is if it is completely changed. I understand bi-partisanship, but when the opposing side offers nothing to rebuttal, then what is the point? My question is, will Obama get his ass moving now that there is majorty in the house and senate? Or will he just continue to move at a snails pace.

    Please, lets not turn this into an Obama bashing thread, I just want to know if people think he is going to deliver on those campaign promises.

  9. dsoccer, the man never asked about hooking up an xbox to anything. Your answer #5 was vague and not entirely correct. Bad information is almost always worse than no information. And if the OP is a noob, how is he supposed to know which ones are correct?

    They were all a joke, except #4. I didnt even think #5 made sense :) . It was supposed to be taken with a grain of salt....I thought the "seriously" at the bottom was a give away, when making jokes (if ever again) I will be sure to add a disclaimer....my bad for all who was/is offended

  10. 1. Really Cool Audio cables :)

    2. You can also connect the yellow to the tv, while the red and the white can go to the xbox

    3. Easy one, its called wire.

    4. No, but then they would be out of phase, usually seen with inverted subs...

    5. Thats because there are two wires instead of 1, ie 1+1 = 2 which would be the size of the big wire....:)

    Seriously?....
