Does running this site qualify me as a computer guy?
 

I have taken my first free-lance computer "job". It's not really a job, since I'm not getting paid.

But I described myself as a non-programmer non-computer guy who has experience with message boards and related issues (i.e. databases, software conversions).

So this was discusses amongst the principals, and they wanted clarification. "So you are not a computer guy?"

I explained it again. I added, "Basically I know how to follow instructions and solve problems."

I'm no programmer, that is for sure (does FORTRAN a long time ago count?). But maybe I am selling myself short. Maybe doing this crap really does make you a computer guy.

It will be interesting to see if I can deliver. I relish the challenge, since their original computer guy failed.

What can I say? I am the man.
