well, apparently the owner wasn't as settled upon hiring me as I had thought, and agreed to a probationary period "in which he could evaluate my performance as his employee" and I guess I didn't meet his standards, but the guys that can't even use the shop's POS system get to stay. I can honestly say it wasn't due to any negligence on my part and I really feel like I'd make a good employee.

awesome, ya i have a Black tower that i plan on transferring all the internals too just so it all stays smooth........about the only thing i plan on doing is locating a usb wire hub on to the monitor side so that i have easy access for jump drives - for "how to" pics...

Those SPL arms look ridiculously beefy. Like they are made for military vehicles or something.

Edit: Jason is your mobo inside that cardbox box?

The motherboard. It looks like the VGA is going to the brown box on the right side. But it might just be hanging there looking like it's plugged up.

No...lol, its just hanging there........

like i mentioned "its in the works" -- Jake is hooking it up with a working tower, if the one he has doesnt work, i have one in San Antonio I know works.....but for the most part im gonna get the parts to a working PC and install them in a Black tower i have. Im probably gonna make a shelf off the side of that cabinet to keep the tower off the ground and out of the way.

Then a usb hub mounted at the base of the cabinet....

ALSO, that monitor was originally beige....I painted it yesterday! came out decent i think...

I drilled a hole in the countertop, and plan on putting a desk grommet to clean up the look.

I plan on loading the harddrive full of MP3's and rock'n out during tech day.

hey man, I dont know what kind of other work you are interested in, or if you even need any, but i work at a staffing agency, and I am currently hiring for some event staff people to work at the Dr Pepper Stars Arena in Frisco. The pay isnt great at 8.00 and hour, but they have 124 events out there so it would be a good opportunity for some part time work. Its not hard, but we do look for professional people. If this would be something that you or really anyone on here would be interested in, or if you need some part time cash, PM me, Ill send you my number and we can see what i can do for you!
