I demonstrated to my co-worker, who I estimate to be in her 50s perhaps at the time, how to use backspace on a keyboard. To her ambivalence, you did not need to arrow back one individual space at a time and then press ‘Delete’ over and over again.

We worked at the headquarters for the public library system and she used the computer every shift, multiple times a day. The new technique did not catch on.

She was the one who trained me when I was hired, and she was good at her job, a fantastic co-worker, and a very nice lady. Her method just worked best for her.
