How many times have you been called an idiot for verifying the accuracy of a critical piece of information?

    I got called out a few times for asking my former lead to verify some data filters he wrote. Long story short, I’m the lead now. If you see a problem or potential problem, speak up.

    Never. If it's marked as critical, I'm triple checking it.

    If I'm then triple checking too much, then it means too much information is marked as critical, not that I'm being an idiot.

    @NoMad Pretty much every coworker and manager I ever met.

    @wackOverflow Indeed, except perhaps it's not always wise to speak up when this job is the only job you landed in a space of two years and you're barely in the start of your career. I don't have a job now though, lol.

    Sensible advice, though.

    @AlmondSauce A good point indeed.

    I don't get called an idiot for it but they say I'm aggressive.

    Asking questions triggers some ppl.
