StudChud@aussie.zone 1 week agoHe’s losing his head at the people in class who are older and tech illiterate honestly. Little patience for those who are a bit slower at following instructions. I get it, because it is simple stuff, but it’s making the other students feel like their questions are stupid so they’re afraid to ask him for help, so they’re asking me (which is burning me the fuck out tbh looool).
Like, one older gentleman is just not getting it at all, and the teacher muttered “Jesus Christ” under his breath. Except it’s a small room and we all heard him.
It’s fucking hilarious. Like he’s teaching unemployed people who are struggling, but it’s very inaccessible to people who don’t use computers.

The teacher is at fault.
He has given these classes before and knows the kinds of students he gets and their needs. He should be refering them to basic computer classes at the local library on the first day.
and 🤬at the teacher, I know for most these older people it’s not innate inability it’s extreme inexperience and nervousness. They think it’s going to be really hard, they think they will make mistakes and “break” things. People like the teacher do not help.
I am reminded of Pauline at the Job Centre www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or6CwOyx30I

I have made things disappear many times. Recently it was speakers. I thought I was pretty clever pairing my phone to them until the man couldn’t locate them on his phone. Turns out I’d wiped them from his phone to mine and relabelled them. 🤷♀️
I always get asked how I do stuff and I always reply with I don’t know. I seriously need supervision.

You did nothing wrong in pairing the speakers. This is how it works. The removing of previous pairings is part of the process.

I could’ve ask and he would’ve helped me set it up properly. He wasn’t mad, more amused. I’m a little gang ho on the OK buttons.
