PC-Club

Filed under: G33k stuff, Personal — danny at 5:15 pm on Tuesday, April 17, 2007

One of the youth from church has been asking for work experience ideas lately, and one of my suggestions was working for a computer manufacturer, much like I did back in year 10. But what computer maker would willingly take on a year 10 kid that they didn’t know? So I decided to look up the maker that I worked for back then, PC Club in Rhodes, because I knew the owner’s family.

Little did I expect, when I googled “PC Club Australia”, the first results that popped up were big headlines screaming “Microsoft wins $1.3m in piracy case”. After clicking around the articles (e.g. SMH and Microsoft), a sinking feeling came over me.

Maybe I should remove this reference from my CV…
