Geek Squad is going down so I would shoot myself in the foot if I wanted to go there and associate with those clowns :lol:

I'm looking mostly how to spread the word about computer repairs. I have helped a couple of people in the past who I have charged as clients, so if they can give me good word and it spreads then I am set for at least working in the city as a side job.

Doing something in computing eh? I'm looking into being a package loader, simply because I'm just smart enough to know that I only have the mental capability to grab boxes and put them on trucks.

:lol:

I have always been in the computing business since I was 15 years old, so I have a lot of experience and I was apprencticed sort of say by my dad, so I know how to work on them, especially laptops.

I hate Geek Squad's guts though. I have repaired computers which Geek Squad hasn't been able to.

You'll be okay though. I mean, everyone has a special skill which makes them stand out of the crowd. Any business, as long as it's legit is good.

Maybe you should stop looking so bad that Soldati Senza Confini cannot make you look unbad even if he tried. You can't blame him for what's clearly your fault!

I'll be the best package loader UPS has ever seen. :P But trust me, I have no useful skills at all, that's why I'm starting to look for long term jobs in physical job markets, like massage therapy, truck loaders, and rock climbing instructors.

I could explain it with diagrams and stuff, but I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that at all. Let's just say that it's magic.
