Almost everyone says that computers are wonderful and that they are 00 changing our own lives for the better by making everything faster and 1 more reliable, but Im not so much sure that this is the case. 2 The other day I was standing in a large department store until 3waiting to pay for a couple of films for my camera when the assistant 4 announced that the computer which controlled the till it had stopped 5 working. I didnt think this was a big problem and I set myself off to 6 find another counter, but of course, all the machines are one part of 7 the same system. So there we were: a shop full of customers, money 8 at the ready, waiting to make our purchases, but it was quite clear that 9 none out of the assistants knew what to do. They werent allowed to 10 take our money and give to customers a written receipt, because the 11 sales wouldnt then have been recorded on the computer system. 12 In the end, like with many other people, I left my shopping on the 13 counter and walked out. Dont you think so thats ridiculous? It would 14 never have happened before computers, and that, for me, is all the 15 problem: we are beginning to depend on these machines for so completely that we simply cant manage without them any more.
