Then you gotta help them, you go take a bottle of water and they already forgot ya, when they are done (after you helped them again) they will return to treat ya like someone useless cuz to them you are "the useless keyboard jockey"

    I can relate to this. A much more senior and older engineer in the department I used to work in was lead over much of my projects. He would call me on Teams over and over until I picked up or harass me via chat messages. 75% of the time it was an β€œIT issue” he had and it was like changing the channel for my grandparents lol. Dude is wicked smart/experienced at electrical engineering, but computer illiterate and abusive to younger engineers like me that are tech literate. While he stressed me out a lot, I felt obligated to helped him d since I sorta reported to him. I recently moved departments to work on stuff I’m much more passionate about. He did it again at 4:52pm on a Friday night and was like nah bro lol.
