2. Are Bump Keys A Threat To Locksmiths
..... The public knowledge of bump keys did not make the locksmith industry happy. It opened up public scrutiny and negative images for locksmiths because it spread open knowledge of how vulnerable the public can be with the locks that are on the market. Privacy was made insecure and uncertain. Bump keys gained popularity and gave the public a glance into the world of the locksmith. The glance, however slight, made the job seem easy. A locksmith faces many challenges aside from the types of locks that can be opened with bump keys. But the public knowledge brought forth both positive and negative attention to locksmiths. In some aspects it showed that more credibility needed to be gained from those legitimate in the business to ease public concern over those who are not.

4. Being A Woman Locksmith
..... Being a locksmith is certainly not determined by whether or not a person is a man or a woman. Women who are interested in the field do face challenges a man doesn't necessarily face, but they aren't disqualified from becoming locksmiths solely because of their gender. Women are capable of performing the mechanical tasks the job requires and a few women over the years have bridged the gender gap to excel in the field. If someone prefers to be in a career such as a locksmith, they will deal less with the public than they would if they were in a job such as waitressing or teaching.
