im a manager at a tiny little computer repair shop, weve got two stores, and fix about a dozen computers each day, mostly your average ignorant user with a blown power supply or too much spyware to get on their AOL.
and "manager" in a small business means you do everything! need someone to organize finances, ask the manager, need someone to fix a computer that the tech cant figure out, ask the manager, need someone to mop because everyone else is too busy? ask the manager. ugh. angry at the cashier? ask the manager....

Sandwich Ninja. No, not sandwich artist, sandwich ninja. I'll make your sub 5 times before you hit the ground. Dead.
Looking to start my own on-site PC tech business soon. Make roughly my own hours, and get paid roughly 15 an hour untaxed.
Can also offer system builds with a nice profit skimmed off the top. Good way to pay for my college, where I hope to study chemistry and get a position doing Chemical R&D.
