If I had a penny for every time a patron came in to use a computer and then complain and insist the computer isn't working when they haven't even turned it on (despite me telling them how to turn it on), I'd have a lot of pennies.
And these are even youngish people who know computer basics.
lots and lots of pennies!!
I would be buried in pennies!
The other odd thing is that they will sit staring at the monitor pressing random keys for 5, 10 minutes before saying anything. 😂

It is. There are a few bright ones, though.
