[ARCHIVED THREAD] - I embarrassed a co-worker today

Posted: 2/21/2006 8:30:34 PM EDT

This guy I work with in the CAD dept doesn't know CAD as well as a bright college student, and yet he goes on and on about his abilities, and acts like a hotshot, while I'm the kind of guy who quietly does his work.

Anyway, today I had it with this guy. He tells me to close an Autocad file so he can go in and plot. He says this ALL THE TIME, and today I finally yelled, "I don't have to get out of the file for you to plot it! How can you NOT know that? You've been here longer than I have!"

To which he said, "Dude...."

And then silence.

AutoCad? Dude, that is so last century. SolidWorks is the only way to model!

Autodesk Inventor is 10X better than SolidWorks.

You think so? I have not used Autodesk, but SolidWorks 2003-5 is pretty nice, IMHO.

Not Cool, Dude!

I bet he thought he could talk down to anybody he wanted to and nobody would crack on his limited education. To that I say: Dude!

ETA: I think you took it too easy on him

Once you use Inventor, you will never go back to SolidWorks..

It is so much easier to use.

And here I am trying to get by with 3DSMax 7.

Learning at a snails pace.
