Yeah, well. I hope they enjoyed it while it lasted. Times like these people need to lower their expectations. I mean, I guess they can live on unemployment insurance til it runs out. I'm a self employed service provider. I'm not getting as much business, and I'm having to lower my prices to get business. That's life. Enjoy the good times. Deal with the bad times.
I have a trickle of customers coming through that I fix their PCs and laptops for but they come back, a couple of professional people and their children's stuff. I also run the Craigslist ads too and try to stand out from the glut of "techs" out there. I know there are plenty of good ones out there and a lot of bad ones that advertise there too.
The Break/Fix department is supposed to start someday in my building and it is my intended job but every couple of weeks it is either coming soon or we're not sure when and it is getting frustrating being the only technical one there. I am at the point of looking a lot elsewhere. I am glad I can do more than just fix PCs.
