Are you the tech support for your family members? Do you get bugged by everyone whenever a small problem occurs on their personal devices?

Unfortunately, I am the tech support for my family. I don't mind it most of the time but sometimes it's stuff that I've already taught them so it gets a bit annoying lol

Also the family tech person as well, I don't mind, makes me useful compared to my brothers that are good with hammers and paint brushes.
A good combination I guess. You do the tech support whilst they help with any handiwork around the house ?.

This was always the part that bugged me as well, a lot of the time it's not a matter of not knowing, but not wanting to do it themselves lol.

I'm only tech support sometimes, my dad is savvy enough that I don't get asked by my immediate family that much - maybe once a year I'm asked to sort out an auntie's laptop though, but I get paid for it so I don't mind.
