      My dad is one of them. Always says that stuff does not matter. I once asked him if he followed the instructions closely and said yes. I did not believe him and so asked every point in the list individually. For every every instruction he told me that he didn’t do that.

        The amount of people that don’t read instructions is ridiculous. They exist for a reason. I always read every manual for everything. Every car I’ve had, I read the manual front to back. My turtle’s new fancy water filter, read it front to back. Furniture, tech, anything, you name it. I guess I’M the outlier so I must be the weird one.

        I’ve literally had to write documentation at work for a single step procedure for help desk. It consisted of me screenshotting something, circling a button in red with a red arrow pointing to it because our help desk people are incompetent.

      this is the state of culinary education in most of the western world, people can’t cook for shit and will somehow burn spaghetti in a pot of water.

        Nothing wrong with the culinary education. The problem is that it doesn’t happen. Thank private education for that.

          You’re, right? None of the public schools I or my siblings attended thought that stuff.

            In my country, before privatisation, cooking and home economics was taught thoroughly.
