Fuck AI

Some people will do anything to prevent having to do math. Part of my job includes counting tally marks from a sheet and entering it into a file. My coworkers use click-counters (which we all have because we use them for other tasks) and will sit there clicking the thing over and over again just to write down the final number. Meanwhile, I scan the page and use mental math to quickly come to an answer. I count twice to be sure, and I'm still done quicker than the click-counters.

It's funny, when I started I was given a click-counter and told I could use it for this task. I responded that I'd get too hung up thinking I accidentally clicked it too many or too few times, and would probably end up in a loop clicking and resetting the thing over and again because of it. They're tally marks, they're not complicated, it's much easier to just count them in my head than introduce a tool that will provide a new margin of error.
