Yes there must be, but in my case, after neally 40 years, is it too late to change.

4 years here. I was unemployed a while back and whilst deciding which job I want to work in I went and applied for office clerk positions. Luckily, my current boss was the one who took me as a trainee and he quickly found out that Im really good at IT-related jobs and networking, and thats how I found my way into the industry...

However, I only know the fundamentals of the technical side of copiers, but I am very proficient with the connectivity related to them

10 years now, started as delivery person then a position as tech became available and I was asked if I wanted to do it. I am now the service manager. I see that most people here have been doing this for a long time, so you actually CAN make a living doing this? Maybe I work for the wrong people
