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.
Like Gordon Ramsey.
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.
/s
I do love it so when these people run smack dab into the consequences of their idiotic actions.
Read: "I'm just asking questions"
Sea lions need to see a veterinarian anyway. Maybe a marine biologist.
I was never threatening or intimidating
Bet they spoke in that calm psycho Karen voice and made veiled threats. These people think that if you don’t shout and don’t make direct threats that you can say anything to a person.
Man if I went to the doctor's office and started giving unsolicited fashion advice to fellow patients they would can my ass too.
Giving unsolicited medical advice to fellow patients is just asking for it.
The clinic inoculated itself.
absolutely wild that they closed the letter without so much as a best regards or even a yours faithfully
I'd never recover from that.
In the UK even! The country that will politely tell you to go fuck yourself!
You have been issued enough medication
No, I don't think antivaxxers were.
Missing a few antipsychotics.
It's always intimidating talking to a clearly unhinged person. If they're a stranger, you don't know whether they will resort to violence if provoked. You only know they don't observe regular social conventions.
Thank you for bringing a ray of delightful insanity into a very dark world :)
There's so many insane people on Facebook.
I remember stuff like r/Hermancainaward all too well...
That was actually a very good thing. Maybe it seemed a bit mean but it taught many vaccine hesitant people why they should get it. Not like obnoxious antivaxxers but just people being misled and not knowing what to do. Saved some lives.
I absolutely read it with that intent. Watching sovcits, homeschooled 'grajiates' and people rocking the Covid starter kit without a hint of irony was both enlightening and hilariously troubling.
According to the COVID time anti vaccine aficionados, we should all be dead by now.
I'm posting from beyond the grave. Cool, now we know ghosts are real.
They all say they know many people who died suddenly since "the clot shot". It's nonsense of course.
It really did pull all the fucking lunatics out of their hidey-holes.
