OP isn't wrong.

We have people that walk into our offices all the time looking for work. When the receptionist tells them we accept applications/resumes online only, they will become irate.

"What if I don't have a computer?" or "I don't know how to use a computer!".

Had a guy walk in the other day in his pajamas with flip flops asking to fill out an application.

I wish them well, but at some point, people have to know better.

Agreed. In my job capacity I have to go to and set up a lot of job fairs. The kind of people that show up are totally lazy shitbags that seem like they don't give a damn. You have a few people that were laid of that come dressed for the job they want, but it's really infuriating to see a guy talk to a company with his arse showing.

There are places that can help people with online applications. Why don’t you send them there? One of my best employees struggles on the computer but I wouldn’t trade him for anything. Great work ethic and unbelievably creative.
