In my past.
I did everything to do with PC's for almost two decades, from Mainframe Computer Operator, to Technician, to Desktop installer/troubleshooter, to Wwoking on the network side. I just got tired of being everyone's technical suppor outside of work.
It's so weird, like being a doctor. You tell someone you work with computers and the next thing you know they want you to remove a virus, or install something, or help you buy a new computer, or solve some e-mail attachment problem, or whatever...
You know, if you told be you were a refirgerator repairman, I wouldn't ask you to come over and see if you could optimize my fridge! Come on. anyone else in this thread get the same kind of thing, especially from family where you <rant>CAN'T SAY NO!</rant>
Anyway, just my $.02 worth.
