Me: …and so this address isn’t your current one.
Patron: No, I need to get it updated, but I wrote down the right one!
Me: And you’re living at a university dorm right now?
Patron: Yeah
Me: Do you have some kind of student portal or email from the university with your dorm address?
Patron: Yeah! But my phone is dying.
So I pull out my personal backup battery and plug Patron in.
Me: Don’t go too far. I need that to play Pokemon.
Patron: I won’t!
Patron fiddles with their phone for a few minutes.
Second Patron: Here, just use my phone.
Patron: Great, great. Now I need to remember all my passwords so I can get in…
Second Patron, after a few more minutes: Okay I’ll set up a wifi hotspot so you can access your internet on your phone.
Patron: Perfect!
Me: All that was just to get internet connection?
Patron: Yeah
Me: good grief
