Why is her standard for "adequate" superior? We're to assume it is, apparently, but it isn't clear that it actually is adequate.

Why is her standard for "adequate" superior? We're to assume it is, apparently, but it isn't clear that it actually is adequate.
- taneq 9y agoWell she did figure it out from the documentation, so clearly it was adequate for her. Maybe she's just that much smarter and more competent than her colleagues, and what's adequate for her is not adequate for them, but if so then that somewhat justifies the frustration that caused her to run her little experiment in the first place.
- sidlls 9y agoIt doesn't justify her frustration at all. There is no indication she tried to help (e.g. by teaching, explaining the superiority of her method, etc.), ever. Her frustration would be justified if she'd been acting like a senior, experienced person and constantly met with ambivalence or incompetence, but there's no indication of that in this blog post. Her frustration absolutely does not justify her actions anyway so I'm not sure it's relevant.
