My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We’re in our early 40s.

      I want to say no, but I am utterly fucking gobsmacked by the technical illiteracy of my peers.

      Millennials either actually work in tech or they have gone down a management route, can use technology to the depth of a 3 year old with an Ipad, go to work, and bitch at the people who actually do things to do things for them while actively treating any level of complexity like the plague. And technology is getting more complex to operate.

      And it seems like the ones who are training under their GenX/Boomer middle management masters outnumber the ones who actually do the work.
