something along the lines of some kind of computer service engineer

basically i work from home and drive around the country fixing problems with computers / networks / POS / any IT stuff in shops / hotels / sports stadia (mostly bigger football clubs - premier / championship clubs).

covering anything from replacing equipment such as a monitor / mouse, to full system builds, installs, and software including all windows flavours 3.1 -> server 2003, Novell, Unix and some other random stuff. and also pretty much any printer u can think of and many you would never see hehehe.

every day is totally different, today i replaced 4 floppy drives in old IBM clones and fixed a multi feeding label printer in a vets. and covered about 220 miles (....... and got stuck in traffic cause it was snowing ) , yesterday i replaced and setup a modem, replaced a dvd drive in a alaptop and then fixed a corrupt win 98 machine, so need to do a lot of on the job learning, as there is simply too much stuff to learn from a book or training courses.

good fun though, more freedom than a 9-5 desk job
