In one of my graduate courses I was asked to tell a little about myself to the class (a non-technical course).
After saying some basic stuff, I closed with: "And, I fix things"
Some of the ways I fix stuff is not exactly technical--I think calling me a "fixer" might be more appropriate....
I'm the guy that has the machine tore apart with a screw driver in my hand... Then the end user comes up and says : "CAN I MAKE A COPY"
UM... lets see... what do u think????
To which I always say "Honey if I could get you one I could you a thousand."
I think I'm a tech. I'm a noob at 16 years, oh wait its 18 years now, sorry lost count. I know not as much as some of you other fine folks, but hey its a start. I'm still learning. I try to help the best i can, hope I have. Really I'm tired of this stuff. I wanted to be something else when I grew up. What the heck happened? Now what do I do? What a life, I hang out on copier forums. I think I need to get a life.
I worked for Xerox for 34 years and retired. Went back as a contractor a few years later until I moved out of state.
Now I work for a Sales/ Service Agent. About the best gig I ever had.
Xerox used to be a super company to work for. Now I am glad to be out of it and on the down hill slide but I wouldn't change a thing.
I worked with the best people in the world and we were proud of what we did. After all we did it better than anyone else and got paid very well for what we had to do. Great benefits, profit sharing and a new car every couple years with a gas card.
Now with the XSAT and GPS tracking nobody I know that is still there is real happy.
Yes I am an electrical technician; I take projects related to my field and doing those works with my team. That was a good way to learn about building construction too.
