You never punched the monkey???
- technion 6y agoAll those years ago I would actually take helpdesk support calls from business users that wanted help punching the monkey from their work computers. People would put work on hold until I walked over to their desk and clicked it for them. I had a legal firm pay us to install bonzi buddy on all machines. It's amazing different the attitudes can be towards things tech people see as silly or scammy.
- zxcvbn4038 6y agoI once worked at a company that made learning management software for CEOs - basically those stupid HR click-thrus we all have to sit through. Problem was that CEOs at the time didn’t know how to use a scroll bar so if they encountered a screen with a scroll bar they either couldn’t continue or, after we moved the next button to the top of the screen, missed all of the content not on screen and couldn’t pass the tests. I could never figure out their issue. I encountered my first scroll bar on a Mac in a JC Penny way back when and had no issue with scrolling.
