I'm employed as a computer repair technician.  I'm finding that more and more people are ditching their home computers for cell phones and tablets, business ha been tough!
That makes sense. People are always on their phones now.
I guess with changing technologies its good that we can work in both private and the public sector.  Companies havent ditched their computers yet.
Yeah, I work in healthcare and we use computers all the time still.
Colleges and universities now offer specialized programs that teach people how to become computer repairmen?
Do they? I've learned basic repair online and built my own computer from online guides.
YEah a lot of people learn on their own and acquire most of the needed skills for the professions.  Experienced technicians can work in a variety of fields like data recovery, administration and information systems.  Endless possibilities! 
That sounds interesting. I've heard there's lots of computer security jobs now.
