That time a Boomer told me to use carbon paper for my final project and I should have listened

My dad (67 years old) insisted I use carbon paper to trace my blueprint for my landscape design final 2 years ago. I laughed and spent 4 hours with my tablet and stylus instead, only for the printer to smudge everything the night before. Ended up redoing it with his method at 2am and got an A. So which generation was right: the one that stuck to old school tricks or the one that trusted tech too much?

But what if the real lesson is knowing when to trust the tool vs trusting the person?

Good tech plus old school backup is the real winning combo.
