I have a long distance friend in his 50s who wants to have a website and work from home like I do. So I got him a domain name, setup a hosting account, set all that up for him and even installed wordpress on his site for him. I also put up a logo on his site and wrote out detailed instructions on how to log into wordpress and how to post his content.
Theres a plugin he needs that I installed for him and all he needs to do is register for it and copy the security key they give him and paste the security key into the plugin settings, and he cant fucking do it! The plugin has a VIDEO teaching people how to register, get their security key and paste it in, I sent him the video and HE STILL CANT FUCKING DO IT.
I spent 3 hours over 2 days coaching him on the phone and he cant figure out how to copy and paste.
How the fuck do people in 2015 not understand how to register for something and not know how to copy a number from their email and paste it into a webpage and click submit?
And how the fuck do you want to have a basic internet business and not understand how to open email and copy and paste?
Thats like a chef who doesnt know how to turn on an oven.
had to rant. So fucking annoyed.
I know a 5 year old who copies things on his ipad and pastes it. He even saw his dads passcode and uses it so he could download games lol.
Yet a 50 year old man cant copy something from his email to a web page.
