I might contact Albo and tell him to fix it when he becomes PM

Anyway, back on topic

Was this directed at me? If so, my post wasn't directed at you, it was directed at the OP. People seem to be giving him a pat on the back for not wanting help but I just wanted to add that there's no shame in seeking or accepting it.

That aside, the "I know the needs of people much better than you do" stuff is probably unnecessary, noone is suggesting they know more about the system than you do. There's no need to lay claim to your territory after detecting a challenge about your knowledge of the system.

Absolutely agree, leesa, it's ok to say you're not ok. It's better to seek help early and address an issue than allow something to fester and become much bigger and harder to address.

Not that this necessarily applies to the op, as I don't know their situation at all.

I read your response as a rebuttal to me, you posted immediately after mine with no quote from who you were addressing, so of course I read it that you were responding to me

I am not going to apologise for my post
