Your situation sounds similar to mine, especially not understanding all the technical terms that are thrown around, although I didn't go to university and am self taught (which I always thought explained the lack of knowledge of technical terms, but perhaps not). > Do people regularly run into coworkers like me during their career and simply ignore it because they find it too awkward to criticize them? In my experience and guesses, I dont think anyone (or at least the majority of people) in this industry (or possibly any industry) is entirely sure of their own competance, so they're worried about the same thing from you.
