    They doesn’t even know what a system file structure is.

    I had to talk to somebody about a file that they needed me to look at and they kept saying It’s the one in the P drive, and they just could not understand that they needed to give me the absolute file path. This was someone who’s an engineer working in a power station, yet they don’t understand about drive mappings

        I can’t remember that justification for all the drive letters. They had Q for quick at one point, because that drive was an SSD and not an HDD so I guess it was quick.

        I think P was the public, as in not an internal drive, and something external contractors could see. But still I needed the actual file path.
