Verification Codes.
One-Time my ass, more like, repeated times. I’m so tired of verification codes up the ass these days. Just today, I had to reset my PayPal password. So that meant there was a code sent to an e-mail address after the reset process was set, to begin with. Then I had to go through the obstacle of verifying the information of the account. And then even after the password was reset, I’m sent ANOTHER freaking code right after!
And it’s even more frustrating to deal with, with my bank. I’ve gotten random verification checks for making internal transfers within my account. Things I’ve done without any issue. But just one day, I got THREE verification checks to do what I needed to do!
This verification shit has gotten out of hand! I want it to just die, just like captcha. Whatever purpose they originally were intended to do, is lost in translation, because now they’re just obstacles that wastes our time every minute we have to bother with them.
My job has a lot of driving. I’ve been put through multiple driving courses on safe driving. We have literal rules about not being able to turn left into our parking lot. Everything is safety, safety, safety.
They bought vehicles where almost everything is on the touch screen. The solution? Tell us to set everything before we drive and pull over if we need to use the touch screen…
I can sit in a car I’ve never driven and work the controls pictured. I’m not one for government mandates on every little thing, but touch screen controls have got to fucking go.
Yes I hate touch screen everything! And don’t even get me started on the data aspect.
