People at work call me a genius. But the reality is that standards are just very low.
My boss has been having a bad week, struggling to find or do anything.
Feeling sorry for them, I asked them to share their screen so I could walk them through it.
What followed was a complete revelation: they had no clue how to do virtually anything.
It is not that they are incompetent or unqualified for their role. Their core knowledge is unmatched.
It is just that all around me, people have woeful computer illiteracy. They don’t know how to perform even the most basic tasks others would take for granted.
And so that’s where I come in. This is why people call me a godsend. Not because I really am. I just know my stuff in an environment where others know nothing at all.
