Throwing this out there.

I have an assignment asking me to talk to people over 40 about the shift in technology in the office-based workplace. Anyone willing to spend about 20 minutes answering a few questions?

Assuming an email thing, if a random UK person over 40 would be useful, message me?

[hannah]

Yes, it's email. I'll send you a message - thank you for being open to this.

I'm nearing 60 and have worked in offices my adult life, and would be willing to answer questions. would this be via a web survey, e-mail or telephone?

[hannah]

E-mail would be easiest. I'll send you something shortly. Thank you.

I haven't worked recently, but I did library work from late 1984 through 2000. I'd be happy to talk about those changes if that would fit what you're looking for. I was in college 1985-1989, and email for everyone on campus was a really new thing a couple of years in.

[hannah]

That would be ideal. I'll send you an email soon.

If you need another volunteer, I'm 47 and have worked in the same office for the last twenty years.

[hannah]

That'd be excellent. Would you prefer a DW message or an email?

[kernezelda]

Email is fine. It's kernezelda@yahoo.com. :)

[hannah]

Thank you! It's been sent.

I haven't worked in an office setting for about five years, but I worked in two different jobs that lasted nearly a decade each where I saw a lot of tech change. (I literally remember explaining the Internet to coworkers who had no idea what I was talking about.)

[hannah]

Thank you! I'll send you an email shortly.

Sure, I'll be glad to help.
