A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

Why do I bother writing up documentation and SOPs if everyone's just gonna IM me to ask stupid questions I've already answered? (dubvee.org)

I put a lot of work into writing up decent documentation and SOPs and making them available. Does anyone read them? Pfft, not if my work chat history is any indication. Constantly getting pinged for basic-ass questions I've already answered thoroughly when I wrote up the docs and SOPs.

And I'll go ahead and make sure you get another copy of that memo. Mm-Kay?

I wish it was professional to just reply with "RTFM" sometimes.

This is documented in the manual. Here is the solution. Can you please write a clearer entry, so the next person understands better, as you did not understand how I wrote it.

People are lazy. Make them do the work by asking and they will learn to do less work by checking the manual and not asking you.

This is fucking brilliant to ask for their input on how it should be written for "clarity". Suddenly "alles ist klar"
