I work in the deli department in a local grocery store. I make sandwiches and fry chicken and make other kinds of food and wait on customers. It is a union job, so I get some good benefits. I get 2 weeks of paid vacation, 2 personals days off a year that I can take off for any reason and get paid for them, I get medical and dental and vision and prescription insurance, I get paid hollidays ( I get paid for the holliday even if I don't work it, but if I do work it I get time and a half). It's an ok job I guess.

I'm a librarian and a DJ...I know, an interesting combination, but it's worked for me! I own my own mobile DJ company (check it out here http://www.discoverydjs.com), I work at a library 30 hrs. a week, and I'm a full-time college student.

Somehow, I find time to mess around online and learn as much as PC's as I can in my free-time...

Oh yeah, every so often I sleep!

All it takes is socket 8 (most of time) for both air bags and extension for the passenger side for the hard to reach screws and one plug to take care of. Takes about 2 minutes for experience person to get in and remove the bags which can be sold for a bundle depends on the make of the car. As to what is the most popular item would be stereo, bags rims leather seats, back end spoiler. A lot of people leave wallets in their cars which is very foolish.

well in answer to "uod2001" 's question,all you have to do is disconnect the battery and unplugging the bags will not deploy them,I ahve been to 2 years of school on airbag installation and repair,but like I said,they just usually cut or disconect the batt cables. and btw why did you delete your post?

There are sensor that make the bag go offon impact. Every bag has a few screws and one plug so it's not hard to disconect it. It won't deploy by disconection unless u short the wires by cutting them together in a bunch. Disconectin the battery is not necessary but a safety precaution

the air bags can still deploy even with battery disconnected.air bag is a bomb waiting to explode people are stupid to steal em.i dont like working on SRS systems at all.you are very brave working on em.
