While driving home from a computer repair job, I had an idea: I should add a job diary to my website.
Every job has a story—the problem a customer is having, what I find when I investigate, and how I get things working again. A diary would let me share some of that work and give people a better idea of what I do.
It also needed to be easy to update. After a busy day of call-outs, I wanted a simple way to turn a job’s details into a clear entry.
One of ChatGPT’s useful features is its ability to connect to a GitHub repository and edit website files. With that repository connected to my website hosting service, I can describe a completed job, have ChatGPT help draft a summary, and review it before it is published.
That’s how this Job Diary came about. It gives me a practical way to share repair stories while the details are fresh, without including customers’ names or private information.
The repairs still happen in person. This just makes it easier to tell the stories afterwards.
