In 1987, I worked for a computer store named Friendlyware<\/em> located on the north side of  Kingsway, near Tyne St., in Vancouver. The owner, John, was an enthusiastic salesman who promoted computers for business use. One of my tasks was to learn all of the business software and teach it to the new owners of the computers. I quit my job just before my oldest son was born in January 1988. <\/p>\n
