You’re the problem here.
Don’t be so quick to help. They’ll just keep coming for more help.
Or if you are quick to help, answer with a question that points them in the right direction rather than giving them an answer.
- NicoJuicy 3y agoYep. Explained that today during a face to face meeting, that I'm not comfortable with just taking over. Normally, I reply with keywords to search for and they can dig in. In some cases, the question becomes literally to do it myself for them and I said yes, then. Today, I explained that I'm not comfortable with that and I would like to not do that anymore.

- NicoJuicy 3y agoYeah. I tried that and it's a bit of a disappointing walkthrough when you have to say: your parameters/arguments changed, because it's a new method that you created. Have a look at intellisense suggestion to fill in the correct arguments. And they don't know what intellisense means ( DotNet development in visual studio. Guy with 18 years "experience" )
