Who says "douchebag" on the internet, more like a word that starts with "N" or "F"
Oh my goodness
Lemmy is starting to get self aware
This kind of reaction ~~friends~~ depends entirely on how respectful our disrespectful the other person was in correcting you. For me, anyway.
Edit: Fuck you GBoard. You have one job and you suck at it.
... you fat-fingered "depends", friend.
You're a douchebag

A sad thing I learned about some (if not most) professional environments is that the best thing to do is to only admit you're not exactly right, and only if you have to. Simply being honest is not honored nearly enough imo.
Hmm, it depends. Definitely good advice for many orgs, probably to some extent the bigger the company the more likely one's ass must remain covered. But in the right settings, owning mistakes (and gaps in knowledge/understanding) can really foster credibility and trust.
I definitely trust people way more when they show me they don't have to be right or blameless to move forward and contribute. But, then again, all it takes is the right bus and the wrong person to wind up under it, I hear ya.
It really was a shock for me the first time as a contractor, when acustomer went from friendliest guy you've ever met to a slimy embarrassing excuse for a human. That was when I learned the hard way once money is on the table, and you have a stake in that pot, the whole game changes. Until then I thought I was a good judge of character, after that I learned that I just never really had anything worth taking.
Also, getting downvoted to oblivion for admitting "well fuck, I was wrong" is a special kind of childish behavior.
But this never happened on the internet before...
