There hasn't been a single job where I didn't have to explain Git to someone. Or that Git is not GitHub.
Wherever I was somehow in charge of some authentication / account management (never been my primary responsibility, but "people who know cloud" teams often get that honor anyway) I have always had someone who didn't understand MFA. Either they assumed because MS Authenticator sends them a push, AWS should send them a push or they would have a clock desynced so hard that the most generous TOTP grace windows couldn't save them.
My partner is in a place right now that had to be introduced to python dependency management. Really. No containers or anything like that either. Just alternate runing the script and installing the latest of a package until the import errors disappear.
I really don't mind tutoring, but many of these people also would rather wait 20 minutes for you to respond than 5 minutes on Google. Or even your internal documentation. That's linked in the Slack channel they're asking. It drives me nuts people value their peers time so little.
