I have a coworker whose default mode of thinking is to manually type everything. He knows about things like tab completion and copy-paste, but for some reason those two things just aren't baked into his brain as a natural reflex like it is for most people. Like if he has to put a URL or database connection string in a config file somewhere, he'll start manually typing the string one character at a time, and will keep alt-tabbing between the config file he's editing and the email or whatever that has the reference string.
It drives me up a wall.
I bet he is paid per hour
I did a short stint as a video editor at a local news channel. Had one colleague who made it a point to lean back and touch the keyboard as little as humanly possible, and use the mouse for everything. It was excruciating to watch him work. He was fairly experienced btw, so I'm sure he could have done the work much quicker, he just chose not to.
This comment made me physically recoil in disgust. Great job.
omfg, I hate when people refuse to take my advice when I try to help them with things like this SOB
