Grandma hates the new technology. She says things were easier when pen and paper or pencil was the norm.
Shuffling through papers, storing paperwork, and keeping receipts that faded was no problem for her. Trying to read computer generated reports, lists, and spreadsheets is a challenge for many older people. It does not make sense to them or is as easy as the old ways.
Keeping the computer working, online, learning all the new changes when updates and upgrades are made, repairing programs, reconnecting, replacing parts, printers, even servers can make the average person go bananas. My son is a computer whiz and sometimes I even see him get frustrated. But technology keeps improving and expanding. Is there no limit?
The government is considering FREE WiFi for everyone in the country. Wow! What a concept! I suppose there are no limits. Another news report today said single use plastic bags are on the way out in Austin, TX. So maybe there will be a limit one day but probably not in the near future.
Does anyone wonder what would happen if all the computers went down? Our country could not function. Our young people would go into serious depression overnight if their texting had to stop. Imagine a world without computers. Can you? No, not unless you were born in Grandma's generation. :)
