      @sincor skateboarding ect As long as they've been public, their first obligation is to their shareholders. Get away from that, you can get sued or voted off the board (meaning no more board pay or comped expenses). The illusion that most of these companies were generally moral comes from their conduct of most profitable behavior aligning with what looks good to the market of buyers.
      They've had generous benefits for a long time, but that's probably due to a combination of two things:
      * wage price controls in the past where employers weren't allowed to increase cash pay, so they offered other things
      * being cash poor at least in a current sense and offering future benefits to employees to get through negotiations
      Those are both things that arise out of needing to make money, not give it away.

    Fun video. I lectured my wife of the importance of always having a 2nd key.
    Additional observation he missed: For battery keyfobs, always have a spare BATTERY around. For newer cars that won't start without a charge, and if you're in the middle of nowhere then there's a problem. For some cars that include a built in backup door opener (old fashioned key), you can keep the spare battery in the glove compartment and then load it up and start the car if needed.

    As a retired locksmith this was very informative and told people in laymans terms the ins and outs of a keyless and remote lock system. They can get very expensive and damage to the rest of the car's system can happen if inexperienced tech's hands, always use a legitimate licenced and bonded locksmith!

    Thanks Scotty, i've been a mechanic for 40+ yrs. an i can do most repairs without too much difficulty. But the new stuff seems to throw my a few curves, and you help me understand why it is happening. Keep doing your videos, i found myself watching all sorts of them even if i wasn't working on that problem or type of car. Thanks again.

      Manually lock the car door from the inside switch before leaving the car?
      The drivers door will still need to be locked via remote key surely

    Great advice Scotty. When we bought my daughter a car for going to college we only received 1 electronic key. I bought another one from the dealer for $275 and bought a valet key for another $90. We hide the valet key on the car in case she loses her key while away from home. I know it is old school and a risk but that is what I do on all my cars - and it has come in handy a couple of times. It is tough to find a good metal surface now days with all the plastic in cars.

    I thought I knew about modern key technology, but you showed me some new stuff.
    If I am in a strange neighbourhood, or a busy parkade, I ALWAYS open my car with the key in the door, the old-fashioned way. That way nobody can get your code. It's the same reasoning as you mentioned about locking.

    I bought my Taco used from a Yota dealership, and they were gonna let me just drive right off the lot with only 1 set of the Immobilizer keys. I told them, "Nuh uh, these things come with 2 new, so I want 2." I held off for 5 more days on actually taking custody of the vehicle until THEY programmed me a new set of keys.
