Yeah, I realized I started to sound snarky when I said "I work on computers" when people ask me what I do. Didn't mean it to sound dumb, it was just honestly the level of understanding about computers a lot strangers had when they asked.
Saying I did networking or worked with servers didn't mean much, but sometimes people would ask me to work on their WiFi...
