I like that there are two of us who liked computers from a working-class background that went into librarianship as an alternative, though you're before my time. I was a working-class girl and there was a lot of emphasis on picking a stable career as the one in my family most likely to 'succeed' (because that stability would let me help my family). Since I started college after the dot-com bust, computers were 'risky'.
