I'm sitting here, on the phone at the THIRTIETH MINUTE with a guy who doesn't' know how to open a PDF in Acrobat. Can't open a Word file.

I'm just so tired and my hayfever/cold/respiratory infection aren't helping either.

I spend what feels like half the morning explaining to my father how he has to pause the printing jobs, then empty the to-be-printed list, unpause and reboot the printer. Every couple of weeks the store's printer stops working. Going through those steps makes the printer work again.

I know what the problem is; the drivers need to be updated, but my father is refusing to do so. He still holds on to his weird computer beliefs. It's the fourth or fifth time I explain the steps to him, I have written them down. But he doesn't follow my instructions and always starts doing his own thing at some point. I told him this is the last time I help him out, that if he follows the steps it all works again, for a while. I'm willing to update the drivers, but he doesn't want me to, so he just has to figure it out himself from now on.
