Bomb Them with Hershey's Kisses

RantWoman is HIGHLY certain that a recent moment from life at the Friendly Neighborhood Center for Extreme Computing will somehow magically inspire people who are baffled by RantWoman's realities. Um, no. RantWoman is less than certain but is called to offer anyway.

The basic point for readers with short attention spans: RantWoman was busy trying to both listen to a customer's conversation and use her screen reader to find some web content on a couple webpages. RantWoman and customer were talking partly about customer's previous travels in Asia, partly about the week's travels by the current White House occupant. Somewhere in the conversation between the quacking of RantWoman's screen reader, customer said he would just "bomb North Korea with Hershey's kisses."

The longer version. Thursday a blind customer came to the Friendly Neighborhood Center. RantWoman does not remember this customer's path to blindness but does remember his stories.

Training is not really this customer's path. Instead his visits mostly involve requests that need some modest level of tech savvy after which he takes the results home, usually on paper or USB drive and gets help from his late wife's relatives. RantWoman and another staffer once had to tag tem about some serious document conversation, but Blind customer has interesting stories of work in forestry and of travel in many countries in Asia 

Blind customer has moments where the elevator does not quite seem to ... but he also wants to stay engaged in his field. This time blind customer wanted the calls for papers for two conferences occurring jointly in early 2018, a task easily done by a sighted user in just a few minutes of searching and views of the relevant websites.
But RantWoman was who was available and RantWoman does not mind helping the guy. RantWoman does struggle both to listen to her screen reader and to follow conversation. RantWoman can explain in more excruciating detail. Basically, RantWoman found one call for papers and the URL for the companion conference including a link to a Google form which was refusing to print after several tries. But customer went away happy. Despite dual track sonic vexations and task not completed to RantWoman's standards, RantWoman is kind mostly smiling inside about they bomb them with kisses. idea.
