Whatever your profession, you know you are liable to be consulted for free about it outside of the work place. You know, the Doctor whose family constantly calls with medical problems (hi, Eric!), or the Contractor whose friends ask for consultations about home improvements (hi, Jim!).
Or, in my case, the Computer Guy whose family consults him whenever there’s a problem. Despite the fact that I’ve not been a hands-on tech support guy in several years. If I had more hair, I’d be the Pointy-Haired Manager from Dilbert.
And now, whenever Katherine’s little beginning learning program on Margie’s computer hangs or crashes or otherwise comes up with an error … she calls out, “Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Da-da. Da-da.”
I’m doomed.
