    As someone who has worked with academics, the more specialised the person, the less common sense they seem to hold onto.

    As such, if this was outside their PhD specialisation, then it’d absolutely make sense that this wouldn’t occur to them.

      I’d like to report that the more specialized a medical doctor is, the less common sense they have.

      Had a doctor chew me out because he couldn’t be bothered to simply turn the computer on.

      That was the issue. Pushing a button was beneath him. Cool man, I’m the only one here at this hour and the phones have to be manned constantly. That ticket can go to another department and wait until they come in morning.

      Also, low priority and I noted that the doctor refused to simply turn it on.

      I think that ticket sat there for over a month.
