    Shhhh! We don’t need them asking us to fix their shit anymore. Let the millennials pretend they are the only ones that can.

      I need to learn this wisdom. Gen x and I fix way too much bullshit from idiots. The only plus side is often people give me their old PCs and some of them have one or two great components. I recycle what I can and salvage anything worth saving but I need to spend less time fixing worthless hardware.

        Just pretend you’re going senile or ‘the new stuff’ is just too advanced. If that doesn’t work you could always claim to have started a ‘tech repair/recycling’ side hustle and start billing people.
