Well this is a cause for celebration and not of the fast food kind.........lol
No, she spent the past year learning certain databases and software. She is not as dumb as people think. Most people on our team wanted to learn these databases and software. But they asked their bosses and they were told to wait. The annoying coworker went to the boss of another department and asked to sit in on his instructional sessions every week. So this new skill set helped her to get the job.
I don't have the skill or inclination for these databases and software programs.
She sounds like a resourceful and motivated person; maybe she blathered on out of boredom. I wish her well.
impressive, still not a justification for letting everyone else down in the meantime (and that can also lead to getting fired in the meantime), but astute woman. I would have asked and waited. But those waiting people are probably bound to be failures in the long term.No, she spent the past year learning certain databases and software. She is not as dumb as people think.

The waiters are still waiting. haha
In her exit interview today she told me that she told HR they ought to give others on the team the opportunity to learn the programs she learned, and others, because we have on-staff experts -- some of which are already holding instructional sessions that have seats open.
Coming in quite late to this one, but once upon a time, I had a boss who used to stand next to me and fart. He was rather elderly and I've noticed among several elderly people that they tend to do that. I don't know if it's a case of "can't help it" or "don't give a damn anymore."
I'm glad this has worked out for you!
