Absolutely Hate Technology

Having a bad couple of days, in the middle of a week off work where things this past year or so have been really difficult. Started the week ok, and was able to relax a little. On Tuesday gave myself 2 tasks on my neverending to do list, first one was to sort out my pc and install a new ssd drive to speed it up as it is nearly grinding to a halt. Have been almost constantly working on that till now 18 hours with no success. 

Just problem after problem, searching for solutions online gets nowhere. Just such a massive wate of time. I don't understand why companies make the technology so complicated and difficult. I just can't seem to take myself away from it, and let it beat me.

I have full time job as a web developer, but technology these days just really gets to me. Things are so much more capable these days, but I just can't stand who in their right mind would design things like they are.

Have only recenlty got a smart phone, and a sat nav, similar problems with those. Tried to update sat nav, but new maps exceed space available.

Yet another thing which has consumed so much time, I just don't have enough to sort out all this rubbish

  • So you think all online forms are the same do you MattBucks?  I'm not an idiot, and I have filled in plenty of online forms in my time, eg: for DVLA stuff, local authority planning comments etc.  These have all ben at least reasonably self-explanatory. I can;t copy you the ones I'm referring to here as they're confidential and have soemthing built into them that won;t let them be copied. If I could, you'd see what I mean I'm sure!  Of course, some people must understand them but whatever I've tried has produced nothing other than an auto reply informing me that I need to fill it in again (no hint as to what I'm supposed to have done wrong).

    I'm sure that with your vastly superior knowledge you'd have no trouble.
