Today, I began training my replacement at work. She's a senior citizen. She got excited when I taught her how to highlight text on the screen and double-click the mouse because she "never knew how to do those fancy tricks." The job is entirely computer-based. I have to train her for 6 weeks. FML

Whoever hired her must be her grandchildren or something, seriously, if she's training for a job that's 100% computer-based, and doesn't even know these things.. I bet she doesn't know what alt-f4 does either and all those fancy tri-- err shortcuts ;p Just tell your boss she's not competant enough for the job and find someone else

The company hired her. Train her for six weeks--she's the company's problem then, and you've moved on to bigger and better things, and hopefully they've learned how to actually screen an applicant.

She will learn faster if she is excited. Stop being bitchy about it and teach the damn woman!

Man that sucks training your own replacement. It's worse than her being a dumbass on the computer

OP may be getting promoted and needed to train a replacement, instead of leaving the company.

Hopefully a replacement because you quit, not got fired. But FYL. You should talk to your boss if you think she's underqualified.

I can't remember the last time I saw a qualified person in any position, at any job; so this is nothing new.

Does she put white-out on the screen to fix errors? If she does, FYL!

Most probably someone related to/ friends with her since she is so obviously under qualified for the job
