I had to work on Easter Today. God **** was I pissed.

Anywho, we closed the store but we still had like 5 people in their. The last 2 asked for my phone number, let me explain :)

First couple, a mom and a daughter (about 34). Somehow we got to the topic of what school I go to. I told them ITT and I was studing Multimedia. They go, Oh really? Yup!

You any good with logo's? Website kind of stuff?

Me with a grin on my face, "Yes mam."

Oh how cool, were opening a school here in Tucson, and we have a reality company we want to put on the web. (YES THANK YOU GOD!)

I go, oh well, I can do all that, know PHP mySQL, flash, photoshop, HTML, almost everything you need for a website. They asked for my number and want to do business.

Next person, very old lady.

"So you know computers?"
Me, still with a grin on my face, "Yes I do Mam!"
"Oh, i can never undestand what im doing, my husband is always like, click this and click that, but he never explains it."
Me, "Well mam, I can give you my number also and I can show you some basics."
Lady, "Oh that would be wonderful! You know, you seem very smart for your age. Maybe you should right a book about computer usage"

I told her I started to and never got around to finishing it.

ANYWAY! Wow two people that are interested in my work. Im thinking about being a Freelancer for making websites and computer help. What do you guys think?

Am I perverted for thinking at first glance that this story would go a whole other way? :sigh: ;)

Anyway, don't get too carried away, but if you really feel like doing it, then go for it, I wish you the best of luck :thumb:

However, if you do ever get around to finishing that book, and you put something like "I loved writing this book very much" or something like that, be sure to use 'write' instead of 'right' ;) ;)

Why would someone ask a worker at lowes if they were good at computers?.. But good luck with the whole freelance thing.
