20-30 hours a week remotely. i like it. because i pick my hours. and hoop and run when i have the energy.and i help my dads business on most weekends for a few hours. but im getting tired of always being in my car and not having a/c. going to either fix the a/c or just get a new vehicle. ive had some horrible memories in this car and its time for a new change.

I’m a tech specialist for a school district. It’s fantastic. I get to drive around to various schools and see all walks of life from elementary to high school. It’s an environment I enjoy being in, and I especially enjoy not having to be solely responsible for the kids (I do not want to be a teacher) but I still get to be around them which is great because they’re hilarious. I also feel very respected and appreciated, since most school staff are technologically illiterate so solving even the easiest problems makes you their almighty savior

Pay is good, it’s incredibly unsupervised as long as you get **** done, and I’m well-liked by my coworkers and even got a flawless eval from the boss a couple weeks ago

Couldn’t ask for much better

Love my standard job at the music venue, but I do have to work at other random places to make up the hours and sometimes that can kind of suck. But sometimes it's also a lot of fun.

I was pretty good friends with the tech guy at our school.

One day he sent a mass email of Porky Pig saying “That’s All Folks” and left

They didn’t replace him until the following year

Teachers with any tech savvy at all became super popular

Even I was above average

Projectors smart boards grade books attendance records all of it got cluster ****ed

There was only one tech guy?

My only frame of reference is my own employer where we have our own department of 18 employees and our own desks and everything with a rotation of schools that we go to. The district has around 7-8000 students

My company has me on IT because I know how to use Microsoft office.

One tech guy per 1000 students I think

Love it. Making $10.50 an hour (22K a year). In a busy week I'll put in maybe 5-6 hours of work. When the company got nuked I backed up our entire engineering and doc control data bases which are stored on my D drive as well as our cloud and a redundant external drive. Neither the owner or his wife have a clue what to do with that data so there's my job security. I do the jobs of a half dozen positions (including Linny's old job). Doc control, design/drafting, project management, customer service, operations, and QC. The owner's wife handles all of the money stuff. The owner spends his time on new business development and business relations with the banks and our factories - he's in China right now.

The added bonus is that the three of us (who prior to the nuking were already incredibly close - Sherri use to babysit their 3 girls when we first moved out here in the late 90s) have become like family. The company Xmas party last year was Jeff, Yvette, Linda, and me. (partied at Richard Blais's place downtown). Bill had to be at least $350.

eh love/hate

made some very close friends in my 3+ years here but ive been recently living with the "don't shit where you eat" explosion and my work itself has gradually gone from interesting and engaging to tedious over the past few months. actively looking but also trying not to make a lateral move
