I'm new to this idea and a Google girl so I'm interested in learning more. I'm not good with tech, but if it's necessary I'll do it as much as I can.

Absolutely. In a previous company, we migrated from on-site MS Exchange to Google Mail (ugh). Apart from it being a crap experience (it was a new service), and feeling like we were beta testers as things kept changing daily, so writing training material was a PITA, once there was an outage, and even though we had ~10K users on it, they basically said "get in line" when we were chasing for updates etc even though we were a paying customer!

Fuck them.
