I saw a user grab a mouse with the cord FACING HER. Two of us immediately stepped forward and started to say something. "hush!" she says and goes immediately to work getting her report printed out.

So we stare at her in amazement. She's clearly had this conversation before, "I was tossed onto a computer several years ago with no training, 'figure it out' they told me, and this is how I learned to use a mouse."

So how do you possibly use it upside-down like that? Why don't you use it normally now that you know it's upside-down?

"YOU try using it upside-down. that's like me trying to re-learn it right-side-up."

so we spent the next ten minutes trying to use a mouse upside-down. And y'know... she's got a point.


I work for the Department of Redundancy Department
