It also involved troubleshooting, upgrading and some house calls (which usually == BIG tips if you're a pimp). Then I moved on to a help desk job and went from there.
Honestly though, if you don't have any interest in IT, and things are different now than they were in 1999 as for jobs, you're better off doing serving. My fiance made pretty ****in good money as a bartender (though she has boobies) and server, and now she's managing.
If it's of any help, I considered doing bartending part time, and I found out that a lot of bars are looking for taller guys in decent shape that aren't hideously deformed. You could do some bartending classes and they usually do job placement.
