Now i have an uncle right, he recently brought 3 computers, 2 for his 4 kids, and 1 for himself (porn etc, but wateva). the kids also have two laptops. Now he calls upon my serviceds to help fix stuff and usually gives me a fiver for a hour/two hour job. i dont really have a problem with that, the problem i have is how much he calls me and what the reasons are.

For instance, i could get up at 12, and he would phone me, ask if i was alright and say to me come down. I would ask why and the reason would be because the computer monitor was on when he come home, or to install Limewire on his ohter computer. Now im 16 years old, im pretty sure he does it to take advantage, im not sure but whatever.

The reason i made this thread was to see what i should do, im going tommorow to install some programs for him and rearange desktop icons.........how do i end this nightmare?
 
Ahhahahhahah desktop icons?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!

I would talk to him and say that I don't really have that much time so I hope you don't mind but I will increase charges etc.
And then he will probably think before ringing you if it's bothering you that much.

But I would be happy really; tenner/fiver for doing absolutely nothing! Sounds great to me!
 
ye , doing absolutely nothing but getting dragged down his house, about 20-25 minutes, every day, pays me rarely btw, not eveerytime. and its a headache, HE DOESNT EVEN TRY.

this is his mental work-out.

Problem>hmmmmmm>Phone Nabil :)

See what im getting at.
 
Well dude this is like business/work.
You don't always like what you do.

Get him to pay you all the time from now on then :)

Do you also have an uncle left? Where did he bring them?

Why not teach him or one of his kids how to install programs?

kids are little, ones like year 4, they all fight over the computer, teach 1, teach all + he dont trust his kids. its me or nobody tbh. so pathetic, i know i shouldnt say that about my own uncle but it is. I mean i have another uncle, who brought his computer, i tought him how to dload torrents twice, install and do stuff once or twice and now he never needs my assistance, when he does he phones and its sorted over the phone. This uncle makes me :mad::mad::mad:
 
tell him school (work) are taking up a lot of your time and you really can't keep going round. buy him a windows for idiots (dummies) book if you feel really guilty
 
Christ, getting up at midday? How the hell do you cope with waking up so early? You must be knackered.
 
i just love some of the pistaake answers, rofl, uncle called problem? but seriously deleted, who listens to english teachers?

as to the op and your problem, if your 16 and not 22, well actually eiter then youve probably got school work to do so just put your foot down and say no!

Maybe you could ask for English lessons in exchange for teaching him basic IT skills?
