I am searching for a career in computers. The issue is, if I mention computers people say, "go into computer science or computer engineering." I don't want to go into the making of computers - I just want to find a job that uses computers frequently. Any ideas? I mean more along the lines of the main focus of the job is on using computers and such.

I just applied/interviewed for a job as a legal secretary. I have no experience as a legal secretary (but experience working as an office assistant), and have a bachelor's degree. The employer wants me to come up with my desired salary, but I am having difficulty establishing this. The job does not offer benefits, and I am afraid of selling myself short. Any ideas? I have been told by an attorney who works in the same area that $32,000 is a reasonable salary to ask for.
