      Hour of my life I can't get back....

      I like this user, she's very nice and kind, wants to do well. When confronted by something new / different in her computer it's like her brain ceases to function; her arms flail, her voice goes up an octave. I have to mention this lady has a doctorate and a handful of degrees, clearly nothing wrong upstairs. Just... mental block to dealing with computers. It's like someone just pulls the ground cable off her mental battery when she encounters something different.

      Ended up screen shotting the process step by painful step, including "highlight the line" kind of details.

        Smart people can have the dumbest problems. Academically they might be ahead of everyone but they aren't wired for problem solving.

          I notice this especially when working with Any Faculty member with a degree > Masters.

            What degree other than doctorate is there greater than masters?

              I know there's a Specialists Degree in between the two for some disciplines.

              Edit: My mom was considering going back to get her Specialists in Early Childhood Education, but then she retired, lol.

                "Graduate Certificate" in many cases. And there are loads of doctorates that are less than PhDs, like trade doctorates.

                  Flying to NYC watching CBTNuggets and YouTube using JetBlue FlyFi. The WiFi is actually working pretty good.

                                          Flying to NYC watching CBTNuggets and YouTube using JetBlue FlyFi. The WiFi is actually working pretty good.

                                          How many millions does that cost you?

                                          CBTNuggets or the WiFi?

                                          The WiFi

                                          It's apparently free...

                                          Oh wow, that's pretty amazing.

                                            Site is seeing just insane traffic today. I just glanced at the sockets and there are over 216 active connections open to the site in the middle of the night! We have over 80,000 views today and the number is climbing. Amazing for a Friday evening.
