I work as a barista in a coffee shop. I'm decently techy if you compare me to the average population. I can't code or anything actually technical, but I'm a decent tech support for friends and family (and by that I mean I am able to find and follow instructions written by people smarter than me using search engines).
Part of me would love to go to school and learn how to code, or get a better understanding of computing and land an IT or sysadmin type of role, since I love tinkering around computers (I semi-regularly install and setup a new operating system on my computer just out of boredom) but it seems like too much effort.
