Technology of today is fast changing especially when it comes to computer. Before computers are just use by big companies who needs faster way of computing but now the ratio is almost 1:1 meaning one home: one pc. And this is the reason why the need for computer related work is increasing. Because I discover a new career that is online. Before personal assistant are like secretary type whore mind their boss about the schedule meeting, appointments, phone calls, and etc but now I found something new it is online/ virtual personal assistant, it may sound awkward but it’s existing because I know a lot company who hire people for this position. It may be the same with traditional personal assistant but with more high technology gadget and you don’t need to follow your boss everyday. Just stay at home / office open the tools you need and that are it does your work.
