1 year agoDid you perhaps intend to post this to Seriously Horrifying? I’d be scurrying down the center of the street, holding my breath for fear of inhaling the plant oils. Yikes.
You could post (good old-fashioned) flyers around the most visible public places nearby (public library, grocery store, hardware/home center, church, etc.), advertising your IT skills.
Rural folks I know appreciate someone nearby who has even basic IT skills, saving them a trip into the city to a big box store that would charge them an arm and a leg to diagnose and fix the simplest issue.
If you charge less than they do and are conveniently closer, you could have a decent part-time source of income. Not sure how rural you are, how tech-saavy your neighbors may be, or whether you’re hoping to make a bigger shift career-wise, but it’s an option that has worked pretty well in my rural area.
