    I look like I’m straight out of school, sometimes people explain things to me like I know nothing.

    Not that I think they’re automatically malicious. Sometimes I find myself in the “explaining” position because I think not explaining makes me sound I’m cooped in an ivory tower.

      it’s always a gamble when trying to share knowledge.

      I’ll even ask people on the job if they know something and they just reflexively say yes when they absolutely do not.
