- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was a software engineer for many years, and didn't know much about the hardware or viruses. Until one day in 2007, when my laptop contracted a virus. I took it to a Geek Squad location where they assured me that they could get rid of the virus. When I got my laptop back I found that they completely wiped my hard drive including all of my pictures, files and programs. I WAS FURIOUS! They never even bothered to back up my data! When I confronted them, I was told that "this is their standard practice." From that day forward, I learned everything possible about the RIGHT WAY to remove viruses, repair operating systems, and get computers running as good as new. By the way, the Geek Squad's model is still to wipe the hard drive first and ask questions later.
