BIGMIKE09281946 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 How many of you AutoCAD professionals have copy of AutoCAD #### at home? And, why is not AutoCAD in the spell checker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I run a copy at home because I work one day a week at home. I love telecommuting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGMIKE09281946 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 I am on Oxygen 24/7 and am studying AutoCAD at home, through Penn Foster and the commonwealth of PA is footing the bill. I have been unable to work for a long time and hope that I can work at home. Getting around with a liquid Oxygen container is tedious and limitied. About as similar to the Philadelphia Eagles.

ReMark Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 What field would you be working in? Mechanical, architectural, civil, other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGMIKE09281946 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 I'm a retired electrician, and most electricians have to know about a lot of stuff, so I'm thinking mechanical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Do you have potential sources for work in mind or would you be literally cold-calling places looking for work? I've come across one or two sites where people actually bid on jobs but the competition is really fierce. CAD users in India will low-ball just about any job that gets posted.

BIGMIKE09281946 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 I have an email from Liberty Professional Services, Inc. telling me to give them a call when I get my diploma. The commonwealth will also facilitate my hiring, so that the employer doesn't worry that I will run out of O2 while I'm working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noahma Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I have Autocad Architecture 2008 and 2009 installed on my home machine. They were provided by my employer, Although I am trying to figure out a way to purchase my own license in case I get laid off lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
