Geez, what are PC Skills?? To learn how to do Word, Excel or e-mail should take a half and hour at the most to learn even if somebody has never used a computer before. It's all a scam in order to sell computer training to people. Software should adapt to people, not the other way around. (I used to work in the usability area, can't you tell?)

There was a "secretary" at a former job who was pretty much useless. The only computer skill she learned was how to plain a mean game of solitaire. She then quit her job because talking to her friends on the company dime while playing computer games (multishirking) was "too much".

After a couple of years of daytime soaps she is having a hard time finding a job, because she doesn't even know how to use Word. Something she could have mastered while on the job.
