“I’m not raising end users…get your shit together kid.”
Quite an important thing. That’s also important if you help your parents/grandparents with something. Guide the through it so you hopefully dont have to help them next time.

I’m starting to get to a point in my career where I have to turn down helping my family.

Luckily my mom’s still young and proficient enough with computers and phones.
