Company call centers should - after a reasonable wait - put you in contact with a bone and flesh human and not a fucking 010001101 robot, also those humans should be paid decently, since I don't envy the insults they, unfairly, take
Memes
Rules:
- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
My old person trait is I think people should remove their headphones when interacting with each other IRL
My old person trait is that often prefer phonecalls over text messages.
I get worked up over other people's spatial awareness, especially as it relates to walking on a sidewalk or driving. People will take up all the space on a sidewalk, they will open their doors as cars are going by, they will walk out into traffic, they move around as if other people do not exist, they will stand and congregate in the middle of a walkway. I find it wildly disrespectful and dangerous. I feel like when I'm driving people are constantly putting their wellbeing into my hands and gambling that I have the skills and awareness to not let them get in a wreck or get run over. When I am walking down the sidewalk, I feel few people are managing space in a way that keeps the sidewalk available to as many people as possible while other people are basically pushing me off the sidewalk entirely so they can all walk like a wall, or bulldozer.
My age
My old person trait is that cars should have physical buttons for at the very least climate control and media.
All the words of wisdom I ever needed was in Grateful Dead lyrics.
On the last one, a lot of places have switched to SMS to talk to someone faster. Even if they take just as long it's a lot less frustrating that waiting on hold.
I think people who deliver food should actually hand it to a person instead of just leaving it by the door.
See now lots of us would much prefer not having to interact with strangers on our doorstep at all
My old person trait is that anything that unnecessarily connects to the internet is suspicious and leaking my info.
- Videos should be landscape, 4:3 preferably, not portrait.
- When I turn on a computer, it should be ready (and pref say READY) in a few seconds, not minutes and need Internet access.
- Email should be fully punctuated, have correct grammar and a premise, argument, and conclusions.
- I'm tolerant on short SMS or pager texts, but if it's used as immediate mail, all texts, IM, and social media messages should also be like #3.
Tabs belong below the address bar on a browser, not above. Also the menu bar should always be a thing and there should be a title bar as well, not merging the two or three (including tabs) into one single bar.
i have never stayed out past midnight and i don't plan to start any time soon. if i get drunk enough and you try to keep me out i'll literally just fall asleep somewhere.
My ye old ass trait is to take sunglasses off when talking face to face with someone, looking people in the eyes creates a more connected conversation.
My old person trait is that I exclusively wear bathrobes unless I begrudgingly leave the house.
