So, I’m a learning person, so if I don’t have a coffee throughout the day, I feel so bad. And paying for coffee all the time is something that I cannot afford all the time, so I had to buy a coffee machine so that I can make coffees to my way to work. The coffee machine that I bought was too complicated for my usage. While using it, I faced a lot of difficulties. Even though the person who had sold me it came to my house and explained me how to use it, it was quite hard for me because it was a technology that I have never faced in my whole life. using it, it had a book that told me how to use it. The instructions were in it, but even that, it was hard for me because it had a lot of buttons that I didn’t know what to do. First of all, it told me to put a water container in it in order to stop, start the coffee machine to work. The machine is hard, that’s why I sold it and bought a one which is a vintage coffee machine. It is easier to use because it only allows me to use hot to do hot coffees, not only cold but also hot but the machine that I had bought earlier was harder to use because it had only the only option in it was making a cold machine that was hard for me so I’m not a cold coffee person that’s why I sold it and bought the vintage one the vintage one is easier to use but even that is hard so I I also sold it. Right now I’ve stopped using these technologies because I think that it’s arduous and this is for people who are younger than me because they know a lot of things and I’m not a person who is easy to adapt new changes. That’s why I’m paying for my coffee all the time, even though it’s hard to afford.
