  • You are helping - they clearly need the additional training, and you’re doing everything you can to supply that. Their job can’t be relying on you.

    They shouldn’t (and almost certainly don’t) have delegation authority.

    For corporate bingo, the keywords are upskill, cross-training, and bus factor.


  • Don’t show. Guide them to do it themselves. Never be the one to actually do it beyond the first time.

    If they still refuse to learn, make them take notes. Make them read to you their notes from last time. Make them tell you what each step is and means.

    Make asking you the hardest option for them to get what they want.












  • This can get a bit complicated with federation. This community is hosted on LW. I am accessing it via sopuli.xyz, and you via feddit.uk. All (presumably) have full bidirectional federation with each other.

    When I hit send, this message will go to Sopuli’s outbox, which will then sync to LW for this community. At that point, this post will live on LW’s servers. Anyone accessing LW directly can see it, even if Sopuli were to go down. Later (probably less than a minute), LW will sync to Feddit.uk, at which point you will be able to see it.

    Note that this is for text posts only. There have been some changes around images and video, both for bandwidth and liability reasons.





  • Rated range, meaning 100%-0% in near-ideal conditions, drops significantly in the winter. Battery conditioning and a cold start can drop it by 35% if it’s using resistive heat (as opposed to a heat pump), plus reserve capacity on both sides (you don’t usually want to go below 20% or above 80%, to maintain battery health).

    I recommend people take the listed rating and cut it in half for real world use in bad conditions. For instance, if you need to travel somewhere that’s 75 miles away (150 round trip) in the middle of winter without charging, then you need a battery rated for 300 miles. You can obviously get by with less if charging along the way is viable, and these are just estimates. If your route is 80 mph, it will suck down a lot more juice than the same distance at 55.
