It's frankly stupid of me to get annoyed when people at work ask me tech questions, I'm getting paid to give 0-effort answers.

But I still wish they’d READ THE FUCKING MANUAL… but on the other hand… I get paid for it… BUT IT’S SO ANNOYING… but my employees appreciate it and I get more than fair pay… BUT WHY DO I GOTTA BE SOMEONE ELSE’S BRAIN… but I value my work and I’m happy others do too… BUT IT’S STILL SO ANNOYING

Much worse is when people very confindently ask things with a fundemental misunderstanding basis for the question.

I love explaing kubernetes in 5 year old terms. I panic when someone says “its a container so do we really need any more security?”.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

Rules

All posts must be showerthoughts
The entire showerthought must be in the title
No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
Posts must be original/unique
Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
