I just work for a company that is so small everyone has to do about 5 jobs. My main job is to design the company brochures / marketing etc. And basically be a PA to my boss. (as he is fucking useless and can't even type an email himself).

But as no-one else here knows anything about computers, I have to get involved.

My main problem is
Because the couple of companies i've worked for since leaving school have been a bit 'Mickey Mouse' when it comes to software etc, I have no actual experience using any packages like Quark, and my only real experience is in Photoshop. SO unless there is a job waiting for me that purely involves photo manipulation then i'm a bit stuffed for progression.
