"I reached out to a supervisor for help with a project when my teammate, who was helping with this project, was out of work for an extended time. This supervisor agreed and assigned a teammate whose skills were not a good match for the project. This was one of their weak points. Then this coworker confided in me that they believed this supervisor was always setting them up for failure by assigning tasks that were their weak points. So I captured the attention of this supervisor and explained that by assigning this coworker to this project, they were exploiting their weaknesses rather than promoting their strengths. They disagreed, claiming this coworker had to step out of their comfort zone. So, I did the best I could to train this individual in addition to delivering on time. But this took longer than if I'd worked on the project alone."
