Apparently you also draw the line at creating documentation Pull Requests. Or do anything that is outside of your comfort zone. You think you have "guys" doing that for you. People on this mailing list are not your "guys" that you can tell what they need to do. And then get angry when they don't. I wonder if this is how you treat your family as well. If you do, then I feel sorry for your family. And wouldn't be surprised if they abandoned you. If you don't, could you please treat the people on this mailing list even a *little* more as your family? > I mainly spending > my time troubleshooting endless issues with Windows, > for which I would not have a job. This definitely explains your mindset with regards to solving issues. I call that "magic programming". You're only looking for incantations and are collecting them so that you can try them out one at a time when you're asked to solve problems. You appear incapable of creating a mental model of how things work, and how a particular kind of feature will influence other features and behaviour. And want the people on this mailing list to aid you with creating new incantations. > So when folks crap all over me, I am not allowed to complain > about it?

This is normal give and take. No, this is *not* normal give and take. This is lacking in self-reflection. This is about not asking *yourself* why things are the way they are. This is always about external influences affecting *you*. This is about taking and *not* giving. > And, by the way, respect is a two way street. No. It is not. You need to *earn* respect. You are *not* earning respect with most of the people on this mailing list with your behaviour. No matter how much "respect" you *think* you are giving them. > Ya, I was a real idiot. Again, a sign that you are the centre of the universe and that everybody us against you. And this email will probably be responded by: I like you a lot and I will wear you down. Again. *sigh* Liz
