Millennials cannot even type
I went to the bank yesterday to sign up for an account to be opened. The person there helping me couldn't even put her fingers on the right keys.
THen she started typing with her fingers, one by one.
Do they not teach typing courses anymore in high school?

Mario teaches typing... we had a class in junior high and I’m not kidding when I say we spent at least 90% of the class on that game. Must’ve been the easiest teaching job of the whole school for that teacher and looking back I’m so glad I took that class.

Anyone under 30 right now is dumber than dirt in this country that's for sure. I took typing for two years in high school and it was one of the easiest classes I've ever taken.

Dude, she is definitely in the minority. Why you defining an entire generation by one person?
The vast majority of millennials, for all the flack they get are more computer illiterate and quicker and better with technology than their predecessors.
They are typing on Smartphones all day OF COURSE THEY WILL HAVE BETTER SKILLZ.

And we knew how to write in cursive and still do.
Millennials are the weakest creatures on the planet.
Re: Millennials cannot even type
I call bullshit. People read and write more than ever due to the smartphone. Even if it's in youth culture- codes. SOme people, of course, will be a little slower.
Re: Millennials cannot even type
i've seen a lot. A lot of these kids always type on a keyboard as if it were a tablet.
These young kids lost the skills to type.
Re: Millennials cannot even type
my niece is in 3rd grade and already has a school-required chromebook she has to use, as well as typing classes.

Re: Millennials cannot even type

Stop.... literally 99% of baby boomers and gen X feels no threat at their work place about being out performed by anyone under 30 regardless if the job involves typing or not. It's just not going to happen unless you have the rare case where said late millennial has uncanny drive and ambition.

How do you think they became high level executives and directors? By typing slow as fvck in their email responses during their way up the ladder? :oldlol: They have secretaries NOW that do that shit for them so they type like shit because it's been ages since they last were typing 70+ words per minute. You can be assured that they didn't look like a toddler to their coworkers and managers when signing get well cards in print rather than cursive.
