I don’t understand a person who goes to a professional to disregard their opinion.

Ah, so you've never had a job as a subject matter expert speaking to a member of the general public i.e. GP, Pharmacist, Mechanic, IT Technician, etc.?

Every goddamned day:

Me: I think I see the problem here ma'am, it appears you haven't updated your phones software in (checks notes) literally forever.

Her: no... I don't think that's the problem. Can't you just adjust the towers?

Me: (quietly dies inside a little)

Normalize calling people fucking idiots to their stupid faces.

You dont need to be an expert.

People have no idea about the complexity and scale of the world. Just how complicated the logistics chain for something like Kentucky Fried Chicken is... "hOw DoEs A cHiCkEn ShoP rUn OuT oF ChIcKeN!?!"

Like... real fucking easy.

Man, I once got asked to help someone pick out a decent laptop. They ignored everything I said and got whatever they wanted.

I don't care what they picked. I was upset that my time was completely wasted.

The best is when you are a consultant, as people will actually bring you in at great expense or fly in from around the world to disregard your opinion.

Now I just go on Lemmy to get my opinion about those same things (and others) disregarded from the comfort of my toilet.

I mean, I can't imagine that someone would spend enough money to fly in a consultant just to ignore them. I don't think that actually happens.
