Because using a room key would be far to hard….
It’s ok Grandpa, technology isn’t going to hurt you. Go take your meds and watch your stories.
Any intelligent person could understand that it is far easier to open a door with a key then it is to pull out your phone, scroll to an app and then scroll to find the open door option, and then press some access function. I guess at the end of a long day when someone finally gets to their room and tired, they can just sleep in the hallway if their battery ran out too. Just because technology can do something, does NOT mean that it is better. Just another “toy” for simple minded people who think they are getting some kind of experience out of playing with their phone, and better yet, a reason to try to discredit someone with name calling because they are far to smart to be amused by stupid things like this.
Looks like we need to up the dosage on grandpa’s meds. He’s shaking his rake and yelling at a cell phone. Oh grandpa!
