How technology made me lose my job

If there is something that once frustrated me at one point in my life, it is technology. This is because it made me lose my job. I am very good at organizing and because of this skill I was a file organizer at a company in the town where I used to stay at. The company got a grant that helped them to buy computers for filing their documents and files. When they set all the computers up, they did not need me. They told me that I could stay if I could operate a computer and do all the filing that is needed. Since I could not do so, I had to be let go. I was jobless for a while and I never tired when it came to job hunting. My friend told me to go to a college and do classes on computer skills, and at the mean time I go to a benefit agency and ask do i qualify for unemployment benefits. They told me as long as I was actively searching for a job, then I would get the benefits. They even required me to take to them contact numbers of the places where I was looking for a job at. This helped me until I got a job and finished the classes I was taking at the local college.
