Are You Serious?

We hired a new girl about a month ago to work part time and kinda help us with the patient overload. She is a middle aged woman and seemed to have experience with the job we hired her for. Apparently she has never seen a computer before in her life. My 3 year old has better computer skills than this woman. She types like the keys keep moving. I just don't understand how it can be that difficult. I figured after she worked with it awhile, she would catch on, but she has no long term memory. Or short term, for that matter. I caught her trying to open up my hard drive the other day to put trash in it. She thought it was the trash can. Yes she did. She has made my job harder, because I have to stop what I'm doing to explained the same things over and over again. I was on the phone with Irish this morning for 5 minutes and she came over to my desk twice while I was on the phone to ask the same question. I just about lost it. How can anyone be that dumb and not retain a single piece of information? I don't claim to be the smartest person in the world, but I can take basic instructions and roll with them. Geez! Ok, I'll stop ranting. Just a bit frustrated with the whole thing. Not only do I have to train her, the other girl is out for the week, and I have to do her job, my job, and the new girl's job. I WANT TO GO HOME!!!!

FLAME ON! haha.

I've learned from nearly a decade of computer training that some people just aren't meant to touch a PC... EVAR!
