    Back in 2007 I worked in an office that required basic MS Excel / Word competency. The office manager led her to her desk and instructed her to turn on her computer (nothing fancy, a basic workstation with a large round button).

    She couldn’t figure out how to turn it on. The office manager sent her home and she never came back.

      there was a joung guy like 4 years ago in the job orientation (it area)
      he could not turn it on either
      He called the pointy finger of the teacher “magic finger”
      he never got into the it apprenticeships but likely he got into another job orientation
