    Oh my goodness… my job requires me to work with a team on some fairly industry specialized software (steaming and broadcast television); the way my coworkers have their shit set up is so weird. It’s like we are all speaking the same language, but with wildly different dialects.

      In my job as a Product Manager, I make specialized software for internal users in my company. Watching people use it can be so painful.

      An example: Look at dashboard view > memorize client name > go to client view > type in client name to search > click to view the client

      When they could have just clicked to view the client from the dashboard.

      After I finish cringing, I just take it as learnings for how to build/design better in the future.
