Okay, maybe I worded it wrong, but it's not like he doesn't respond to emails or texts or anything.
He is an immigrant, went to school here for engineering, is extremely smart, as I saw the past few days. The issue is that he is a bad listener, has trouble comprehending, interjects needlessly when others speak with
"yes i understand i understand i understand....", and doesn't always give direct concrete answers --- he always gives analogies or circumvents or explains the situation instead of just giving an answer.
he told me he will be brutally honest with me in my flaws for my own development, and naturally i take criticism well, but how do i go about addressing these issues with him? He told me he wants me to be honest with him too but there has to be a right way to approach this so there is no hard feelings. I'm 23 years old, college dropout, I don't want to come off in the wrong way to an engineering veteran who's been in his game for over 10 years and has great achievements.
we just had a meeting with software developers and it was sort of obvious the other guys were getting irritated a little bit when they had to constantly correct him because he wasn't understanding or giving the right answers.
