Pet Peeve: Trying to learn something new and taking notes and trainer says “You shouldn’t need to write that down.” How do you know what I will/won’t remember the moment we disconnect??? Let me live!!

Trainer is an ass. Everyone is different.

Ugh, my mom is this way. She wants me to manage her assets, then comments that I need to listen, and that I shouldn't need to write any of the information down that she's telling me. In reality, I won't remember anything that she says as soon as I walk away from that conversation if I don't write it down. Reflecting on this, that's probably why I got in trouble so much as a kid, I couldn't remember things she told me to do because I never wrote them down. All that to say, I empathise with you. This is especially poor on the trainers part because they should know that everyone learns differently :/
