Crunch Learning Computer Programs

Sure it’ll be easy, said Mrs. Computer McGower. Zipping along at a hundred miles an hour. Thinking she was instructing us with her turbo power. Actually jet planes have flown slower over my head. Some of us grew up on outdoors and nature instead. So she started again, so full of vigor and pep. We were copying down instructions, some missed every step. We added the apps she told us to add. Some zipped away, except those who had already shut down big and bad. I guess you imagine that I was one of those. You are not wrong, I must disclose. Today I had to figure out the task all on my own. For I do not do well with instructions that fly, flew, or are flown. I have to hear them slowly, and more than once, no fuss. So here I am today, feeling warmly without having to cuss. When we went to virtual school, everything changed a bunch. We are learning computer programs that we have to crunch. I am learning more today than ever before. It is a quarter to four, and I am not out the door. I am finally getting the hang of some stuff That I wished I had caught on this morning without all this huff.

Wow! You are really and truly speaking for me!! The exact same thing happens whenever I have to attend some seminar introducing the latest 'whiz-bang-new-and-cool' computer operating system or some such. Thanks for expressing that 'sinking feeling' so well, Caren! Technically inept and incompetent, Gershon

It is so SILLY that we are REINVENTING the wheel. Just send a TECH to our houses and DO IT FOR US! We did not sign up to be teachers to spend eight hours at a computer doing a tech's job!
