Some of them, sure. Usually old people that ran out of neuroplasticity 40 years ago. But there are a lot more that function well enough and IT guys (specifically the guys, IT gals usually either have a better idea or hide it better) have a tendency to think of them as useless, where if they had to do their job for a day they’d be as lost as an old guy spooked by the window location change.
Like, all the places I’ve done IT were engineering offices and stuff, where me trying to do the job would get people killes, but most people’s jobs, especially above a certain point on the pay scale, are genuinely fucking useless. They do nothing, stuff would function fine without them; maybe better.
