Was in a long line at the pharmacy the other day. Supervisor told one of the older techs to open another line. Tech complained that her “computer had crashed”.
Younger tech walks over and asked her if it had simply gone into sleep mode, and did she try wiggling the mouse?
That fixed the “problem”. Older tech cackled. Younger tech rolled his eyes and muttered something to himself.
How do people make it to 2024, hold down a job, and still can’t do basic computer shit.
Yeah, it was weird. Most restaurants had a non-smoking section because allowing people to smoke everywhere was the norm. Leaded gasoline. Little kids playing with real fireworks. The 70s and 80s were a wild ride of irresponsibility.
It wasn’t all bad, though. It was cool being a kid at times. Playing outside almost every day until dinner time with the other kids in the neighborhood.
