'Ma'am, you do know Google is free right?': Hotel clerk gets fed up with demanding guest who expects clerk to be an encyclopedia

Do you even stop to think - how on earth did people manage to live their lives before the internet existed? Sure, it might have been more peaceful and carefree times, but how did they go places without GPS? How did they find information without Google?

I know this sounds completely ignorant of me, but I can't wrap my head around it. Last week my mom and I talked about this long trip she took after high school, in which she spent 3 months traveling with a friend all across Europe, and I was amazed by the fact that she managed to do that with no cell phone, without knowing the languages, with only physical maps and travel books. Mindblowing.

This Reddit story might help bring my point across. This front desk employee complained about a guest who kept coming up to them and asking them questions that could literally be answered with one Google search. The employee was trying to be polite and helpful, but couldn't understand why this guest couldn't just use their own phone.
