  • I’ve had to train literally hundreds of people over the various jobs I’ve had and it causes me to over explain in almost every conversation.

    I got two tricks to figure out how much someone knows about a topic and encourage them to ask questions rather than lie just to avoid being a little uncomfortable.

    First, I look for them to use vocabulary that I haven’t already mentioned or if they seem to understand something just by using a couple words.

    Second, I ask them to explain something early in the conversation to make it easier to ask if they don’t understand something later. It’s usually really simple, but it really does work to lower communication barriers.

    I like to think it makes us feel more like equals trading expertise, rather than like I’m some authority talking down to them.

    I hope this helps anyone

    I was kinda being mean just for the sake of the meme. I know there’s a lot of nuance when it comes to Jenny and forest’s relationship. I fall into the “it’s understandable, but still not justifiable” camp.

    I totally agree about the movie. Easily one of my top 10 movies

    There’s no debate. Jenny used forest and threw him away as soon as he didn’t have what she wanted. When she ran out of places to go, she comes to forest just to torment him, get pregnant, then run away again. Then, she appears out of nowhere to hand off forest’s kid that she had been hiding from him for years right before dying of the aids that she probably also gave to forest.
