    I work on a team that teaches courses on how to use specific programs. I’m at job level 1. A job level 3 guy keeps asking me to schedule meetings with him so I can teach him how to use the specific programs so then he can do the job he was hired for and teach other people how to use these specific programs.

        In my line of work your competence does not get you promotions, but who you know and how well you fill out standardized tests that haven’t been updated since the mid 90’s. I’d have to change industries haha

      Why can’t level 3 dude schedule a meeting with you? Instead of asking you to arrange the meeting

        Because he doesn’t actually have any interest in doing things himself. He has no technical ability but sweet talked himself into this position. I won’t lift a finger for him on this as it’s not my responsibility so we’ll see if he tries to throw me under the bus and how my management reacts.
