6.) Your nontechnical co-workers will use you as personal tech support for their home PCs

Your co-workers (in addition to your friends, family, and neighbors) will view you as their personal tech support department for their home PCs and home networks. They will e-mail you, call you, and/or stop by your office to talk about how to deal with the virus that took over their home PC or the wireless router that stopped working after the last power outage and to ask you how to put their photos and videos on the Web so their grandparents in Iowa can view them. Some of them might even ask you if they can bring their home PC to the office for you to fix it. The polite ones will offer to pay you, but some of them will just hope or expect you can help them for free. Helping these folks can be very rewarding, but you have to be careful about where to draw the line and know when to decline. For help, take a look at TechRepublic’s free download “Ten ways to decline a request for free tech support.”

No. 6 . samok kaayo ni sila... bisag taga-an na guideliness both pc and software na "how-to" mo tawag gihapon sa phone and text. atot nalang.

regarding the payment... honestly...bisag kaila, cousin and friends... dili ka ingon " bayad nimo beh " atot nalang. mahug ra TY as in TY gyud.

mas maayo... just to tell them na paayo nalang sa mga computershops or even diri sa istorya.net.

sayang man sad na wala kay money gikan sa mga services.
