Well, first day today 
I got there almost right one time (I got lost and ended up another city away and turned around, but I was only 1 minute late, it was because the road I have to go to doesn't have a sign telling you it's that road) so I got there and he sat down with me to talk about what happens and what he does.
he showed me how sometimes companies hire the people for advertising, so he was really happy I know how to do that too, since I took a class for that and know how to make little ads and things, and also he was impressed that I understand business.
Took a business course as well in college and he was really happy I understood that as well because according to him, the last 3 techs were just crap when it came to how much you charge and how you do things to run a business.
I'm sitting here right now charging a laptop up he wants me to fix up, gave me the ticket for the customer, and let me bring it home and a desktop which is a "Mystery" machine. It may or may not boot up and no one knows what's wrong.
Then later on I have to drive toa customer's house to basically set up a network, and decide MYSELF what to charge... I didn't let on that I specialize in setting up cable net connections and have friends at Comcast, that would just be rubbing it in.
I was in his store for 1 hour 30 minutes, I have a binder to look over, a laptop, a desktop, and I get paid per job I do, so I can probably get these done today + the on site call and blow his mind since apparently, the other techs he hired abuse his lack of know how in tech stuff and made it seem like it took longer.
I guess the load he gave me should be done soon but not all in one day or even 2. He basically said to me to try to at least do the drive out job tonight and go from there, but I have about 5 hours until then so if I can get this laptop rollin' and have both done I should have a nice chunk of change to work with 
Anyway just an update and a thanks for the support,
