Why the **** do I need a QR code to open a pedestrian door in a car park? Not working? No problem - press the button to be put through to our 24 hour QR reader helpline. I feel like an electron in a piece of software...

(see - bit of continuity. No beds this time).

What does a person do if they don't have a device that has QR codes on them?

I hate some technology, like the solar-powered and radio-controlled watch I have that sometimes changes automatically on BST changes and sometimes, like today, didn't. And with a manual to wade through to rectify this - not that successful this time but managed to bodge it - so what happens when I lose the manual! And this is true of so much technology now - being dependent on a manual, when it isn't obvious how to do some things. But then of course I had the luxury of living through an age when buttons and knobs were not thought of as extravagances. :mad:

Lots of kids today can't read analogue watches/clocks.

And yes..... you either get a 400 page instruction manual with stuff or else 3 tiny pictures with some badly translated labelling.

If you can display the QR code on your phone do so and offer it up to the scanner

If not then print it out and offer it to the scanner.

If neither are a solution, there should be a speaker box nearby where you can get in touch with someone and explain that their QR code system is **** and they need to open the gate manually so you can escape this hell hole

It's Wednesday I'll need it. I might just take some matches with me and burn the door down. Job done.

Most manuals are available online today.

I hate the situation my brother in law has got himself into. He's fine on medication but has been without for almost a year. It has essentially cost him his way of life, having lost several good paying jobs (he's self employed). Lost his car, and is due to be evicted from his appointment before Christmas. (The eviction notice came while he was in hospital)

We are trying to get him to France but brexit rules only allow him up to 3 months unless he gets a visa. But he won't apply for one. Chances are he will be homeless by Christmas time and there is nothing we xan do about it.

His parents washed their hands of him years ago and will not talk about him or consider him moving back with them.

Hubby and I are both stressed to the hilt.

Has he stopped the meds himself?
Anyone else in Uk that could help? Friends or organisations? (Social services, Mind, Living With Schizophrenia...)

People in this society think that the only way to shut a door is by either letting it slam shut or manually slamming it shut. Also, parents who send their kids to academy when their kids have the flu are being inconsiderate. (I get it, if your kid misses a couple of days, your kid won’t be the supreme learned one, but most of us don’t want to catch the flu and end up feeling miserable.)
