Over and over, I am reminded that I am totally ignorant, my assumptions always well off the mark.

Just before my afternoon break, I was doing some admin on my staff record at work.

While tabbing through the sections, I noticed the qualifications section was completely empty, with no way to correct it.

“Oh well,” I thought to myself, “clearly nobody in this place has any interest in my educational background whatsoever.”

Fast forward just half an hour, and I return to my desk to find an email in my inbox from a manager I helped with a project earlier in the year.

He’s introducing me to two more of his colleagues in the hope I will be just as supportive of them in their own project.

And right there in his email, as if to answer my unfounded assumptions, he’s found my profile and has sent them a link to it to highlight my skills and experience.

Talk about timing. Once more proving I’m a bad judge of pretty much everything.
