What I am worried about is doing more and more important things on a phone. I am not comfortable, for example, having anything to do with any bank accounts I have on my cellphone. I have gotten over loading my credit card information onto it, but having my money that accessible is a bridge too far for me. I could easily lose my phone, or I could easily have it hacked and emptied of all my money. Why would anyone pay like that? Sorry, that's just me.
The annoyance of typing on a small device has been married with my fear of losing my personal information now that I have to onboard myself to a human resources company through my phone. I need to do that in order to work Saturday, but I was completely caught off-guard that I need to do this, and it looks as though I can only do this through my cell. I have had to put in my name and address a few times, and now I have to upload a voided check and an image of my passport. Really? Through my cellphone? That doesn't seem to be a smart thing to do, and I have to do all this important stuff while not making a keying error.
Worst of all, I somehow have a deadline. I need to do all of this today. And check this out: I have a Zoom meeting I need to "attend" before I can get this all done so I can work. A Zoom to do HR stuff? Let me guess -- it'll be some AI bot I have to talk to, right?
God, technology is going to lead humanity to ruin.
