To be honest, I love rotary phones.
I hate paying my bills over automated communication, unless it is voice command. I am old, and so what. I have no problem with new technology. But I do have a problem with lack of human interaction.
Just today, I called up my storage unit, and if the physical person at that location is not at the office, the automation dumps me to a automated system. I fucking hate that. I have for years payed that bill physically in person, and even verbally over the phone with an actual employee who works at that location, and not a call center, or computer.
No, I am not sorry about that. I don't think new technology is a bad thing. But at the same time I also think we cannot, nor should push out all human contact.
Human interaction where your TV remote is concerned goes back to the 70s when your dad told you to change the channel and you got up and turned the damn dial.
Good lord, you've been drinking early lately.
I'm your huckleberry.
