Re: Has this happened to you?
Being in the technology field I can explain something to someone in the simplist form possible every day and they still won't get it. Just when I think the person has it because I haven't heard from them in a few days...here they come again! Yes I'm actually refering to an individual in one of my buildings. I try not to get frustrated, I'd rather people ask me for help then go without and complain to a higher up who will then come to me and ask me what's up. I also refer to these people as job security!
I ran into ALOT of situations where people felt they had more rank than me (which they did in years) when I was a Tech Director for a local school district. I was only 22 when I started there so if you can imagine all these people questioning how a "kid" could handle such a position...you'll have an idea of what I had to put up with. I did a dang good job with that district and they still ended up bending me over after 3yrs...but I'm not bitter.
...wait yes I am!
Re: Has this happened to you?
I have! The same thing has happened to me at my old job.. sometimes you wonder how certain people attain the positions they're in.. I am not talking about my current job here, but a past job in retail; Yikes, that some people are allowed a supervisory position when they can not even do basic math!!
