But I still wish they’d READ THE FUCKING MANUAL… but on the other hand… I get paid for it… BUT IT’S SO ANNOYING… but my employees appreciate it and I get more than fair pay… BUT WHY DO I GOTTA BE SOMEONE ELSE’S BRAIN… but I value my work and I’m happy others do too… BUT IT’S STILL SO ANNOYING
When it comes to answering questions that I feel are basic, I’ve had to acknowledge that other people have different strengths. Like this xkcd.
Instead I go based on repeat answers to the same or substantially similar question. If I have to explain something 3 times in as little time, I might start to feel annoyed.
Of course though I won’t every let it show, so the only real impact it makes is their ranking on my internal leaderboard of coworkers I’d be happy to see quit lol.
Yes.
One of my coworkers is way better at the whole… being social… thing and I gladly let them handle that. But they are awful with tech. I need to always be reminding myself that thanks to them, I need to deal with people way less, even if it means I need deal with their tech illiteracy. So I try to not lose it when they once again ask me to figure out an issue they’ve asked me about at least 3 times before. They’ve still kept 10 other people from asking me how to solve a couple of issues even they know how to deal with.
