We had a new intern come in today. I sit across from her so I can hear everything she is doing. (She’s in project management.)

She didn’t know how to turn on her laptop. She didn’t know how to dock or undock it. She didn’t know how to use dual monitors. She also typed really, really slowly (I could hear it). She didn’t know how to use/find the start menu or how to open applications.

She’s a senior in college, note. All she’s ever used probably is a phone or tablet, though, and the rare typing a paper in a computer lab where everything is already there and ready to go.

Amazing.
