There are many interesting things that people experience over time. Here’s mine.
A common response when they ask me what course I am from and after I replied them is, “Could you help me solve my computer problem?”
LOL, I think people usually mistake computer engineers with computer technicians. I would say during my course of study, most of what I could do is self-learning and not what I pick up from the course. There are some useful modules that I learnt, but I hope there was more.
And when people look at my websites or digital designs, they will comment… “Wow, you are very good at computer!” I believe the artistic styles have nothing to do with whether you know a lot about the computer or not. I’d rather they attribute it to my creativity, seriously.
I also get asked by my current roomie very often, “Wa! You stalking people on Facebook ah?” I explained that I am replying to my friends and he was doubtful about it. “Got so many things to do on Facebook one meh?”
I actually receive notifications and event invitations from people. If he finds nothing to do on Facebook because of inactivity or some other reasons, that’s his business. I find it very intrusive of that comment especially if I don’t know him very well.
I have to admit that I may not be sensitive with words all the time but I think one should at least try to put words properly so it sounds appropriate within context.
