> Unless you’re the only competent person on the team, if the team thinks its a good idea then why not? If you’re the only competent person on the team however, you should really leave the company.
Sometimes I ask myself this question and I basically can't answer because, well. What are the odds that I am ? And what are the odds that it's the opposite, their ideas are great and I am in the wrong doubting them ?
Actually the most common situation is that someone will come with a very bad idea, and when asked what they think about it, the other attendants will something like "yeah, maybe that could work". They don't approve nor reject the idea. And it looks like more passivity than anything, but if nobody says "nope, that's wrong" and I'm convinced it actually is, maybe I am the one in the wrong ?
I see exactly what you are saying about CR. And that's exactly my mindset. But sometimes people argue that it's a matter of opinion while to me it's a matter of correctness. In those cases I'm lost because on one hand I deeply know that they are wrong, but on the other hand I don't want to be the bad guy that always reject PR because I think my opinion is more important than their.
TL;DR : I don't know where to draw the line between people's limits and my own stupidity.
