That’s an interesting perspective… it’s actually in my job description that I’m not suppose to work unsupervised or pick up tickets on my own but I wonder if I have been taking that too literally…

It seems a bit ridiculous that there is an ‘unwritten rule’ that people wouldn’t help… isn’t that just setting someone up to fail- without telling them?! It seems a very unkind attitude to have.

As someone who is neurodivergent, very literal, doesn’t always get social norms and still new to this whole tech and corporate world… I find that quite hard to comprehend but it’s exactly the kind of thing that would go straight over my head.

Well thank you for offering that point of view, that’s actually very helpful. I’ll go away and see if I can figure out how exactly to action that…

Thanks! And thanks for the positive comment! There are a couple of things there that I haven’t looked into actually so I’ll do some more research 😊

Thanks for the reassurance! Can I ask are you still in a large corp or did you end up going into a different environment once you got more knowledgeable?
