This dude is extremely persistent about having irrelevant things his way, and when he doesn’t get it, he acts as if it were a personal attack. Do you guys have any argument or method to deal with this kind of people?

I used to say “whatever” and let him have things his way, but as I got more experienced I started to listen more to his arguments and basically respond “this makes no sense” (not with those exact words, of course).

    you can just end the call. you can say “goodbye” before you do.

    however, i hope you’re not naming all variables foobar1, foobar2, etc., because then he would be right 😆
