Moms! Moms! Moms! (I think I sense a new Mötley Crüe song!) Swipe right. One more work story:
Engineer comes to my chemistry lab at Intel to ask me to de-process the computer chip he has. To peel back all the plastic and glass and insulators so he can get down to the transistors to apply a focused ion beam to edit the microscopic circuit.
I do - which is a series of chemical steps - and I put it in the oven to bake out all the moisture.
He comes back and demands it immediately and I tell him it takes 24 hours to bake or it'll blow up when you turn it on.
He's all "you're an idiot, you have no idea what you're talking about. GET ME YOUR MANAGER", and he actually went and got my manager and came back.
My manager looks and hears and says to the engineer, very irritated "she's right" and storms off like "you wasted my time on this?!" That engineer went on my manager's list I'm sure.
