screenshot, probably from Ex-Twitter but I saw it on NOSTR, showing a guy saying that training a zoomer to use a PC at work is as difficult as training a boomer, with a reply indicating that there is only one generation that can rotate a PDF and that knowledge dies with us

    Don’t show. Guide them to do it themselves. Never be the one to actually do it beyond the first time.

    If they still refuse to learn, make them take notes. Make them read to you their notes from last time. Make them tell you what each step is and means.

    Make asking you the hardest option for them to get what they want.

      That’s similar as the saying:

      Give them fish, and they will have something to eat for days. Teach them how to fish and they will have something to eat for a lifetime.

      Something along the line 😅

      “I should be able to ask my team for help” - The guy asking me to do his job for him after the umpteenth time of him refusing to learn a basic process.
