"Multi-Mate" -- boy that was a walk back in time

I started out my career as a statistical typist then onto statistical word processor then onto senior helpdesk analyst.
Don't forget to check Craigslist
http://boston.craigslist.org/about/cities.html to see if there's one in your area.
You can find all sorts of part-time jobs there: students looking for term paper typists. I've seen writers looking for someone to type their book. I've seen executives that want someone to organize their home and office lives.
Don't just think inside the "typist/word processing box", you have a whole lifetime of valuable skills that people now need but just don't have the time to learn.
Hugs.
