Yeah, but you were still in a teaching position.

No, I was in a meeting with a supposedly technical person.

I've been in the industry for a while, and I've even mentored people. These gaps in basic computer knowledge are new and they're also not my problem. I was not this person's mentor nor supposed to be teaching them anything.

They could've been exceptionally inept, and even if they were, I'm still going to stick with my initial conclusion that you're bad at teaching.

It's okay, most people are and you don't have to be ashamed of it. Everyone won't be on your side when you say it's someone else's fault that they couldn't learn from you effectively.

If I knew I was teaching remedial computers that day, I would've come with a lesson plan.

I'm going to stick with my initial conclusion that you love to blame the "teacher" even when they aren't in any way a teacher.
