Really? Please point out what part of the advice I gave frenchjew was innacurate.
I just finished a networking job I did for a local attorney and aside from upgrading his computers with vista to win 7 and configuring his pc's to be exactly what he wanted I also redid his entire network and now rather than having his receptionist or whoever drag and drop documents onto a thumbdrive and walk them over to the pc with a hardline to one printer I have the entire office sharing that computers connection to Two printers (one a business class hp 4345 laserjet mfp, the other a smaller but similar 2035 laserjet) and a flat bed scanner. So basically I made his entire operation substantially more efficient and befitting a person of his status and I did it at substantial savings of both time and money vs if he'd contracted out to some company to do the work.
Oh, there's more- I also did repair work on his 4345, including replacement of the swing plate assembly. Do you know how long the job took me? Six hours, and a HP certified master technician is expected to do it in about 5, which I am very proud of as it was my first time attempting something so technically challenging. By all means pm me and I will give you his info, he's easily one of my happiest clients and I would love for you to call him up and tell him he's a moron for having me work on his shit.
I don't give a fuck where you are coming from, I bid out on jobs I am confident I can do and haven't failed yet. This last job which I finished yesterday I saved the attorney at least $1500 vs what he would have spent to have HP fix the 4345 (they quoted us $700 once and $1100 a second time, and keep in mind an HP rep came out a month prior and charged $500 just to say he had no idea where the smudging was coming from, he gave up) so fuck you for telling me what I can and can not do.
Hint- I don't listen to anyone but mySelf, no one is more qualified than me to dictate my own personal capabilities or limitations to me, so please save your breath next time. What you can or can not do has nothing to do with me.
