That is not a very good circle, to be fair.
When you are allowed into the vicinity of this kind of equipment, you should be able to identify matching shapes without circles in the first place…
That’s right, it goes into the square hole
a tech illiterate old friend of mine in his 60s got tasked with changing his simcard for new one. But the network just didn’t appear. Long story short after 3 hrs of headbashing I asked him to send me the photo of simcard itself
that was a valuable afternoon for my humility

note the right side of simcard frame bulging out
for confused in terminology
I used to work at a phone repair shop. The amount of people that put Sim cards in their brand new phone without the tray. We would have to take the phones apart to get their Sim cards out.
And when it doesn’t work, they ram it HARDER
and then people wonder how porn stereotypes can be harmful
Had someone verify that wifi was working because he could see his neighbors’ networks. Airplane Mode was enabled. Dunno what he thought he saw.
Same thing with a colleague. The guy told him that he was definitely connected to wifi. It took a lot of probing to confirm that wasn’t true.
Some people just can’t provide valid feedback nor follow simple instructions. I kinda feel like those individuals shouldn’t be allowed to use computers to do their jobs. If you can’t
masterjust pass the basics, sorry. Here’s a pencil and a pad of paper. You can either work the longer way or you can consciously put in the effort to learn this stuff enough for us to help you when you need it.My own father, who had a doctorate in mechanical engineering: “Now click the Apple menu.” “What’s that?” “It’s the menu that’s an Apple logo in the top left corner of the screen.” “I don’t have that.” “Yes, you definitely have that.” “No, I don’… oh there it is.”
I’m not calling anyone stupid. More that I’m saying people convince themselves that they can’t learn and then shut down.

My wife had her HR rep get pissed at her just yesterday for sending an email to her boss and other higher-ups asking why assistant managers at her company can’t use the computers theyre on all day properly. She had asked for a screenshot of something so she could see what the other person was seeing and they replied with “I can’t do that idk how” and thought that was acceptable?
Luckily the other higher ups told HR to shut up and that she was only mad because it’s her job to ensure basic computer literacy and she clearly didn’t.
People 100% get into the mindset that “well, I already know the basics, so anything I don’t know is advanced user shit so I can’t learn it” and it’s infuriating
Was the employee also given an a SFP or were they supposed to just make one out of thin air?
