Kill me now.....

Ever had to help a senior citizen fill out an employment app on a computer when they had never touched a computer in their entire life?

I have.

I was ready to slit my wrists before she even got to the part where it said "Name". Forgive me if I'm wrong, but if I have to tell someone how to hit the space bar to separate their first and last names, working a touch screen cash register will probably NOT be their forte.

God, give me the strength to make it through the rest of the holiday hiring season.

    I have done tech support for many years. I can feel your pain. I find a nice stiff drink after work helps tremendously. LOL.
You've read my mind. I'm on my second glass of wine...

    I know exactly how you feel... but look at it this way, some day we all will be senior citizens.
I'm hoping I'm one of the hip, trendy senior citizens who dress far to young, play way to much bingo, and drag race for motorized cart pink slips.

    At least a cash register isn't a lethal weapon.
Very true.... Although, behind the wheel of a car, she could be considered a lethal weapon. LOL That was bad, shame on me.....

    Ah, the holiday hiring season. My younger sister is going into it as the acting manager of her store. A smaller one in her local mall, but one that is well and truly slaughtered at the holidays. Her ankles become cankles, and she loathes every Christmas song that isn't drenched in sarcasm.

    Good luck to you! Perhaps she will be perfect for re-stocking and folding merchandise? Maybe cleanup? Gotta stay positive until the customers suck the life out of you!
I truly feel for your sister. This time of year, retail sucks. Christmas starts before Halloween even rolls around. This is my third holiday season where I work, and it never ceases to amaze me how much I do loathe it.

I managed to get her through the process, which I consider a triumph. It's about a 10 minute process to do one of our online apps, she spent the better part of an hour and a half doing it WITH my assistance. I must be a saint.
