[Cbsupport] About me and what I thought Computerbank was for
I've recieved 2 emails the other 20 odd were deleted by filter and I never
saw them
Do you know I got this computer from Computerbank March 20th
Do you know that all I know is windows and I learning something new
Do you know I had major nasal surgery on March 26 with a reall risk of death
and they had me in intensive care attatched to a ventilator and heart monito
I was deperate to get the computer set up for before the surgery so the printer
and modem would work in case I died David my husband who has recourating
from a broken back and wrist from a work place injury could still looke for
work
Do you know that I was going to volunteer to answer the phone on Saturdays
in a couple of weeks and see if I could rearrange things to be there on Wednesdays
as well so the phones could be answered
I thought computerbank was to help disadvantaged people like myself and david
to gain a computer and to learn linux and hopefully get the info out htere
into the communtiy
I didn't know you needed an IT degree to do that
I now feel like my questions are stupid, boring and far beneath many of you.
I was always taught that the secret of sucess is to share knowledge and pass
it to others. I have spent hours and hours searching for informaiton on
the net and only now am I finding things relevant to my level
I've withdrawn my offer to answer phones even though I have experience in
reception and currently volunteer as a receptionsit as Kalimnia and before
Windermere. I don not have the levels or skills to help out with linux and
debian and kde so I would be more of a hinderance than help
I had put things forward as I found things and will continue to do so because
I believe that there are other novices out there like me who might appreciate
things I find.. if it only helps !1computer bank person thats success you
can always delete if its from me and you know its beneath your superiority
So this doesn't happen why haven't one you techno geeks put to gether a page
for the basic training manual of where newbies ot go to
Well don't worry I will, from things I've found
