Finally they listen to one of us and we can move on while they grouse about how things used to be simpler...for them, I presume.

Then other classic is the elderly cashiers who can’t seem to figure out which button on the point of purchase machine they need to press so I can speed up the line with Apple Pay. Should take two seconds and I’m out. Can take up to a minute while we all wait patiently for them to figure out what seems to be a core job skill.

I guess we all have to be patient with folks who don’t adapt to change readily.
So good. Nice to hear the other side of the continual boomer rants about "kids these days" around here.
