Growth Job Sector: Freelance Technical Support

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the making-cable-ends-meet dept.

An anonymous reader wrotes: "Over at World New York, they've posted excellent advice to the geek masses: If you're out of work and know how to use a computer, you can make a killing doing freelance technical support." Update: 07/25 20:00 GMT by M : The author has asked that we link to the article on homepage.mac.com due to server overload. :)

    if they are idiots, why are you all unemployed? Why are there so many computer people unemployed if everyone else is an idiot?

    MAYBE BECAUSE YOU BOUGHT INTO THE GODDAMN HYPE?

    I read you are from Canada, but I heard the most convincing conspiracy theory yesterday, that Mr. B*sh and who ever else on the know has purposely decimated the economy (of course Mr. Cl*nton got us on the right "borrow till you puke" road of finances) for the very reason of making the military look more appealing to a jobless society...

    I perceive the US's economy is tied enough to our northly neighbors to effect your economy as well... think twice before jumping on board to a gun toting job... Unless your gov't doesn't plan on going to war ever, it may not be a good career move... getting dead to grab oil isn't what I'd call a worthy expenditure of time, but if you are already in, good luck.
