Have you ever experienced anyone explaining something to you, then treat you like you were stupid because they had to explain whatever to you, when you never asked to have whatever explained to you?

For example, my sister has a bad habit of “explaining” things in such a way as to make it perfectly clear that she thinks you are a moron for needing to have this explained. The fact that I didn’t ask for an explanation, because I didn’t need an explanation, escapes her.

My boss somehow thought I needed to have my job re-explained to me after I got out of the hospital. She’d “explain” how to do things (which I already knew how to do) as though I were a painfully stupid kindergartener. Then she wrote me up for not knowing how to do my job any more, and eventually fired me. It was all in her own imagination.
