I hate bitter people
For a company that's hiring 200+ people a month, you'd think that:
1) They'd have better training on obscure programs with names that totally do not convey their meaning. (I.e., a bug-tracking system that's named after a video game.)
or
2) They'd have a little patience when brand-new users don't quite get it right.
I really don't want to drink the kool-aid they're offering when I'm greeted with, "What the heck is this?"
I've been given one informal sit-down that went through which buttons to push, not what to put in the boxes. My sincerest offering of bitter tea to the fellow who seems to think that everyone thinks like he does, and that snarking at someone somehow corrects the problem.
If you tell me what you want to know, I can inform you. I say it to my kids all the time. And, I'm teaching them to use basic *manners* when questioning someone.
Bah.
