That's a big part of it for me, too. The other part is that I document things pretty thoroughly, but no one wants to read that. I'd much rather they read the docs I wrote and ask specific questions than expect me to just explain everything from scratch.
Similarly, teaching someone how to do something (that of course I taught myself, as my preferred means of knowledge attainment) is 10x more difficult that doing that something. The frequent lack of desire for people to experiment and learn anything on their own is very off-putting. Of course this makes me curmudgeon.
Any time I hear someone say "I didn't think about that" when dealing with a very simple problem, I just want to pull out "How long did you piss on the toilet seat before someone told you to lift it when you go?"
Seriously, I shouldn't have to describe how to remove the ball bearings from this part, because I explained how to do an identical one 2 minutes ago.
I love taking things apart to know what makes them work. Electronics and mechanical devices are fascinating.
And I don't understand how someone can look at things and go "yeah no need to look any deeper, I know enough already"
Train AI using the docs and redirect users to the AI first.
Get out.
