Bragging Rights
So, the girl I work with has a real need to be the absolute best at everything. Today my buyer asked for an impromptu report. We happened to both be sitting there when he asked, so she got all serious and acted like she was going to do it. Well, my buyer, my report!!!! So I started the report and she came over giving her two cents worth. Now I will say she is way better than me at alot of what we do, but queries and databases, she doesn't know even a fraction of what I do. Not saying I know it all, but I know more than her. Well, she couldn't figure it out, and left. So I did it my way, what I know best and I just finished the report. Now she and my other buyer are getting all pissy with me. I refuse to apologize for knowing how to write a query. I worked hard at this stuff. I taught myself most of what I know. I am proud of what I know and I like being able to show it off every now and then. I have alot of skills that are not used in this current job. Just the way it is. But I sure as hell am not going to act stupid when I have a chance to use those skills, especially not when it is just to stroke a couple of peoples egos.
