"Shut up and follow directions unless you know better." is a phrase I think translates very well in all languages. Not German. Not Autism. Just harsh feedback for people that need to hear it once in awhile. Mostly management types.
Too many people think they know better. You're not allowed to think you know better unless you're able to put yourself in the position to be the one to write the directions.
You know how many conversations I have with people who are mad about a problem, and I tell them that's the reason we have a policy they didn't follow, and then they say they should tell people that that's the reason for the policy, and then I tell them they do explain it, right where the policy is written. Oh my God, you didn't read the policies before you did this, did you!? What else did you miss!?
