  1. ok guys here is my problem, i have a memphis mojo 4kw and about 2 weeks ago i was driving and nothing worked my voltage dropped and came back up and continued to do so i unhooked everything from the battery thinking my battery was bad so i take it to look looked at and the battery was good with 12.9 volts. so today i decided to take a look and check wiring and found that my ground had come loose so i put it back on tight checked all other wires and it blew my fuse, amp didnt turn on. so i go down and buy another fuse thinking i blew the first one cause i hooked it up wrong or something and as soon as i start my car this one blows WTF i dont get it!!! why would i keep blowing fuses? any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    thanks in advance

  2. so i thought today was gonna be a great day....i was suppose to get my new memphis amp that i have been waiting for (i just got it) but noo theres always gotta be something that ruins my day. i was driving home and i guess i was in a 15mph zone which i knew i was approaching one but didnt think i was in it yet so this cop behind halls ass lights and all and pulls me over says i was doing 38mph i was like holy shit there is no way but i didnt argue since i didnt want a huge ticket since i just blew all my money. i was thinking hey maybe he will just give me a warning since i havent gotten a ticket but nope comes back with a fuckin 431 dollar ticket, i was pissed to say the least! no idea how i am gonna come up with that amount of money in 30 days, i have prom and shit coming up so i have to actually work my second job i gueesss. it sucks but shit happens.

  3. dude go for it. working isnt what pays more. my dad used to always say to my brother why dont you be a lawyer or something? dont be a car mechanic you wont make money. but thats dumb. my brother loves cars and he gets paid to do what he loves. whats better. waking up at 7am and wanting to stay in bed because you dont wanna work or get up at 7 and jump out of bed because you want to go to work. :D

    true that, i have to agree. work is not work if you enjoy it.

  4. well my only advice is my knowledge. Im almost 21 and have been working for my county for 3 years. I am in school full time and hopefully soon will be able to test on to be a sworn in officer.

    Its just that once u take that oath even on days off we have to call officers in to redo this or sign in evidence this way. Being called out at random times in the middle of the night to investigate a scene, take pictures, etc. What happens if your at your FF gig and they need you, what are you going to say, "no im busy at my other job ill get to it when i can?"

    Side jobs a couple days a week for straight days seems to be the thing to do, but in my opinion i would stick to one and go with it. You need to be 100% focused on either job because you cant afford to slack in either environment.

    yeah true that, i get what your saying but like devilman said you can be trip certified and have you on all three on your shifts. but i dont get how that would work.

  5. I've been a Firefighter/Paramedic for 15 yrs and I wouldn't do anything else. I wake up every 3rd day and am happy to go to work. As far as being triple cert (FF/Medic/Cop) there's a few depts here in texas that your on shift as all 3. It's a pretty decent paying job. I recommend the job to everyone, dude I get paid to hang out with my buddies and have fun, plus the chicks always dig fireman!

    all the FF i have talked to have loved it also. i have also been into all of them and how do they have you on as all 3 during one shift? and yeah buddy, most chicks think its hot :)

  6. I dont see how your going to be both unless you work at a small department where you can work a certain shift.... but if your on patrol or doing any type of crimelab/forensics i dont see how you could swing both jobs?? can you enlighten me maybe im just ignorant. I just dont know one cop on our department over 160+ that are both

    i didnt find that ignorant at all, it was acutally a good question. but down here in Fl and most other places F.F. work 24 on and 48 off but are only allowed 3 days a week to work so i was thinking that maybe on my off days as another job i could be a cop. not sure if its possible but im still looking into all the details, i dont see why i couldnt do both. or if worse comes to worse being a firefighter you can switch shifts with people and plan out your year so maybe half the year i could be a firefighter and other half a cop?!?! like i said still doing research. if anyone has any info i am willing to take anything you have.
