I miss when companies at least pretended to try to give customers a good experience
Haha dumb kids, at least MY play screen has Excel on it
“Hey mom, can I go create pivot tables?”
“Not until you finish your TPS reports”
playing Excel Tetris
What the hell am I looking at?
Looks like a McDonald’s play place, which has transformed from a big room full of tubes and ball pits to an empty hallway with 2 touchscreens and chairs.
They had game stations before even in the play place days.
They couldn’t even bother to at least keep it similar to those where they at least looked whimsical for the children. They were just colorful stands with 3 or 4 screens and knockoff looking controllers. Some had chairs or you could pull one up but others you had to stand because the controller height was weird.
These corpo twits are so out of touch with reality.
The controllers would be missing at least one button and half the fun was trying to figure out how far you could get with that.
I didn’t even mind back when the best “play place” my family went to was a restaurant that had a couple arcade cabinets tucked away in a corner like this - something about this picture just feels far more isolated. I guess it’s just the empty hallway - the arcades were just a few feet away from a table at the old restaurant.
This is depressing as hell… which I guess is the point of this post sadly.
