She closes the windows

Mirah

I love you
Each time she enters a new room. It is painful to each watch her open and close windows multiple times in 1 minute.
 
I work with a client who used to genuflect uncontrollably, going down to one knee over and over. Only thing that stopped it was she got too old, started to have trouble doing it. Now she stares uncontrollably at the ceiling. Not sure which is more disconcerting.
 
I am not sure either.

I watched her go from one room today, up the stairs, back down the stairs and through the same door again. She doesn't realize there is a shortcut.
And then she closes everything up, locks the door and is fumbling around with the keys again.
 
No, not at all.
I just spent a week watching a lady on her computer so she can show me some processes. It drove me crazy to watch her open a web browser, answer a question, go back to a worksheet we were working on and then less than a minute later she would need that same browser, so she would go through the process of opening it up which took several steps each time.
She was also using a shared file in drop box and instead of going right to the shortcut which is located on her very full task bar, she would close all of the windows she had open, and then go to that folder which was on her desktop and then go to each folder to finally get to the desired destination. Then she would have to open up each fucking thing she closed to get back to where she was.
I tried gently to tell her about having multiple tabs open and minimizing, but she sort of forgot most of the time.
 
I feel your pain. It took me years to get my mother to understand that a Facebook notification in her email meant I had commented on something via Facebook and that she did not have to both answer the email and ALSO go to Facebook and answer me there as well, often with the same reply. Old people and computers = lol
 
Every time I read this thread, I read it in an outrageously fake Jamaican accent whilst pouring Captain Morgan's finest dark spiced rum over my toes.

I tried the thread that way but my Jamaican accent sucks. Came out sounding Irish. People were hiding their Lucky Charms from me.
