Why not, All of the above! :)  

Right now I can't get this to work:

~$ systemctl --user enable Test.service
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
~$ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/Test.service
[Unit]
Description = Test Service
After = network.target

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/home/bob/Test/
ExecStart = bash Test.sh
TimeoutSec=15

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
