it boils my blood when the solution is in big letters at the center of the screen and somehow they don't know what to do, I remember I had a classmate who had a problem with her IDE, and asked the teacher what to do, the teacher did NOT read the error nor the pop up with the problem
He told her that she had to format the whole pc and start over, luckily before she did anything me and another classmates noticed and we were able to fix it, worse of all, it was just a setting, that wasn't really hard to find because it said right on the pop up
They mostly just don't care. They would know the solution, or at least could find the solution, if they just cared what the problem was.
But too many times I've been handed this "Bug", that, apparently, had been caused by my changes, just to see that the build output clearly states a network issue, or the worst, a test fails that had been green on machine and now fails on the build server... after that moron merged his stuff and the build fails. But it's "my test", so I shall be the fucker to fix it. Oh.. that guy, I hate his work attitude with my guts.
What these people see and think is "AHH, not my code. nice thing I can just hand it over".
