The Life of the computer guy

We all know when your uncle is the plumber, you by all means have the right to give his phone number to your co-workers grandmother, so that she can have him fix her daughter in-laws, sister’s toilet leak. Since you know the plumber indirectly, very indirectly I might add, the expectation of free service is somehow assumed. Now this is the case with most people, just not with you reading this right now. I do not mind helping you, but only you. :)

30 or 40 friends and family members later, I decided I needed a better solution to assist my friends and family who suffer from computer distress and called upon me for services. There’s nothing more I like to do than get on the phone with you people and listen to you explain your computer issue to me, especially when you start reading that error message to me that says: You always make sure to read every digit too and I guess that’s because you assume I know what that error message is. Please, if there are more than 3 or 4 digits in the error message please do not read them over the phone or for any other reason whatsoever.

How about when we go around in circles for 45 minutes because I was asking you to RIGHT click on something and you kept LEFT clicking and telling me it’s not working! And probably the best one of all when you say to me “Hey my computer is really slow and when I try to surf the web I get all these pop-ups can you fix it.” I ask a few probing questions. “Do you have any virus protection?” You respond “NO” then proceed to inform me that if I have to redo your computer the only stuff you want to save is you’re Lime wire and your MySpace.

There's not much more I can think of that's as fun as spending 2 and half hours on the phone with you explaining the difference between a megabyte and a mosquito bite or how to right or left click something. NO!!! I have stopped the madness and taken control. Literally! Again this is the case with most people just not you reading this, I don’t mind helping you but only you. :) 

Enter HELPMEJAY.COM, A place to come and have your computer serviced from the comfort of your own home. More importantly the comfort of my home. This service is simple and free for now. I might spawn this off into a payable service at some point so do feel privileged. :)After growing tired of listening to you people "I love you all" on the phone feeding me bad information and making my job a whole lot tougher, I decided If you are going to waste my time fixing your Lime wire/MySpace infected PC with no antivirus protection, then it’s now going to be on my terms.

That being said I have created HELPMEJAY.COM a place where it’s simple for me to remotely connect to a PC and gain full control for the purposes of resolving your software and computer issues. After you establish a connection, you also have full control of your PC and we can both see the same screen and mouse movements simultaneously.

Connecting takes less than 10 seconds. This service does not install any permanent software on your computer. This install is a small 169 kb temporary file that will uninstall itself up the termination of our remote session.

There are a few rules to be noted:

1. You must have an appointment before I can connect to you. I don’t sit around the computer and wait for you to have a computer problem, some people do perceive this!

2. Do not ask too many questions. Just let me fix your computer, follow a few simple instructions and it will work out painless for both of us. Trust me!

3. Do not ask what happened after I fix it because ohhh Just because OK…
