I'll cross my fingers you'll still get to be a librarian for as long as you wish! And I hope you don't stop pushing people to read, despite not having a library job. You can always push us here on the forums!
In fact it's about time I acquired a new book or three from Terry Pratchet! Thanks to you and an ex co-worker, I bought 2 books so far, and loved them. Of course being somewhat of a completionist (if you can call it that), I'm reading them from first to last. ^_^
Isn't it always about global warming? >_>
Hey it'd be an AWESOME opportunity for you, if you put your mind to it that is. You'll have to apply yourself a bit, and be open to learning new stuff, but IT isn't all that difficult on a basic level. The biggest obstacle is (from my experience) people just refusing to learn. They seem to set in their mindset that learning to operate computers on the basic level (IE installing programs, uninstalling programs and basic troubleshooting) is like rocket science. At that point trying to teach them something is nigh on impossible, because they've already given up. But hey even my step-mom who DESPISES computers have learned to use one, even if not well enough for installing programs and stuff without help. But she was hopeless to begin with, and she even had the mindset of learning it being too difficult.
Of course it might not be easy on the IT guys, but if they're half decent people, they'll be reasonable about it. And if you really do try to learn as best you can, you might even surprise them as well as yourself. Who knows, maybe it'll get you to the point where you can install your own games! :jig:
PS: Last I read you had a friend help you with installing games. If you've learned that since, then I apologize for sounding rude. In fact if I did sound rude, I apologize, that wasn't my intent.
