All jokes aside, best of luck to you. Hope all is well with your recovery. It can be difficult to up and make such a life changing move. Unfortunately, I’ve only done small work using Google Sites and can sometimes not figure out why my wifi won’t work. Cheers to your future career and maybe you can help out around TBD on a virtual internship! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the Divi theme from Elegant Themes. They say it's the #1 theme worldwide for WordPress. I do sites here and there for friends, and that's usually my go to. Although the site for my band I used a different theme that worked out well. (Have to look up the name). Band site: Boomerang! Site I did for a friend using Divi and various plugins: Once Upon A Hutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent about 20 years in banking. It was a fine job, but the bank I was last with eliminated a layer of management. I saw it coming and bought into a client’s existing business. That resulted in the happiest working years of my life. I’m retired now in another state, and I still dream about it. I LOVED what I did, and I learned the difference between a “job” and getting paid for a passion. When things looked dark, the best days were ahead. Good luck to you going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
