A Possible Career Path? You Never Know

Is it an omen to a future career that I have become the resident Powerpoint designer in the office? I know nothing about computers other than what I use and I have never taken a single class on any of these things, but I have a feeling I could ace Microsoft certification with my eyes closed and that’s no small feat. Toss in a few dozen great new Powerpoint templates I whipped up the other day and I am definitely becoming the resident expert on this stuff. So, where does that leave me as things start to develop?

I’m not sure. I don’t think I could make a career out of offering Powerpoint tips to my coworkers, but then again – throw in a few more valuable skills in Pagemaker and Access and you have someone who can run circles around most PC desk jockies. Not that I really want to be stuck with that kind of label. It’s a tough world though, so any skills I can develop at this point are ones that will eventually help me in my corporate future.
