I broke my family's tax computer by trying to install Ubuntu alongside Windows and instead formatting the whole hard drive. I learned more I. The three days attempting to recover that computer than most my life. I thought everybody had these tech skills until I went to work for a real estate agency and ended up making more money fixing everybodies computers. I then made a series of lateral moves and now I'm managing databases, websites, and networks of a printing company full time. I love not freelancing.
