I don't know what it is, it might even be me, but recently when I've asked some of my co-workers a question they seem to think that I'm asking something completely different because they give me all kinds of information, but none of it is in reference to the question that I asked. And it's not like I've been asking difficult or involved questions, they've been simple and concise.

The most recent was a question to my "boss". I asked him if he had done anything in Layout 2 on an AutoCad drawing that he had been working on, and which he had me take over the work. He proceded to tell me what had been done to the drawing as a whole, not by him even, by another co-worker, but not about whether he had done anything in Layout 2. I stopped him as he was talking and told him I just needed to know if he had done anything in Layout 2, that was all I was asking and worryed about. He said no. That was simply enough.

Of course I don't believe him. And the when I asked the other guy about it he hadn't been in Layout 2 either. (Guy number two is our computer guru). The "boss" is not so great around AutoCad, hell, he's not so great around the office in general, and I think that he doesn't want to admit that he doesn't know what he's doing.

He wasn't always the "boss". He's now one of the very few, but very big, reasons why I'm not going to stick around for much longer.

Thanks for letting me vent! I feel a little bit better.
