highly underrated skill to be able to communicate with people who have different levels of technical knowledge without being condescending or shitty about it
#i think i'm a reasonably intelligent person most of the time but some of the jargon around here makes me feel so stupid#and most of the time it's not necessary!#using simple clear straightforward language will not kill you and will not reflect on your intelligence#anyway i just got done scoring this proposal and it gave me a fucking headache#and like. english is my first language AND i'm familiar with the content AND i've worked with these people before#and i still don't know what the fuck they are trying to say!#it makes me feel so stupid to say it but if i think if you're asked a direct question you should directly answer it!#I spent like two hours trying to read between the lines to see if they were alluding to/hinting at stuff but jesus.#call me old-fashioned but if we ask 'how is your work aligned with x' and you don't clearly say anything about it...#you don't get full credit.#I don't think that's unreasonable!!!#one of the most valuable skills i developed as a teacher tbh.#because if your shit is too complicated for your students they will bitch at you about it and they have every right to do so
