    working with 90% of ppl over 45-60 years old is properly frustrating

    can a boomer explain why your generation loses their will to learn?

    at work I'm constantly met with squirming and anger when I show (note: show, not demand/request) them a few different ways of reducing their time spent on mindless repitition. (this isn't unsolicited advice for the record)

    I have examples if anyone wants..

    No, but you can probably find a test to take online that will tell you if you have them.

    I have this boomer friend that has a computer only to play age of empires. He occasionally goes on the same tired rant about how he doesn't need an email as he's always done fine with out one and he doesn't need to know how to technology.

    But then will always ask you retarded questions on how to save a picture or how to delete text ect..

    Or if you could sell stuff for him over eBay because he doesn't know how. He's kind of a jerk in that regard

    you know what, about the time turing was developing the first processor switches that would become the modern computers, my mom was just being born. she turns 80 this year and a few years back she joined her local WI women's institute thing for something to keep her busy in her retirement. they made her their treasurer and my mom got a laptop and asked me to show her how to use it, which i wasn't looking forward to the idea tbh.

    but i got her into how to start it up and open firefox and load web pages and some other basic stuff like using files and folders and shit. then i taught her how to youtube, then told her how anything she could possibly want to do on a computer she can just look up on youtube and there will be video tutorials on it. now she does their accounts on spreadsheets, prints stuff off, sends emails around the group, and she even prints or emails maps off google for their days out.

    i'm pretty surprised how well she's picked it up really. i was expecting she'd be constantly on the phone to me every 5 minutes and i'd have nightmares trying to explain shit to her over the phone, which it was at first, but she wasn't too bad. so yeah she's picked up the basics that she needs pretty well to be fair, considering she lived over 75 years having never even pressed a power button to any computers before now.
