My teammate is very annoying😡 Whenever he is stuck with a problem, he just spends a very little time on it, and if he is not able to find a solution he gets me on the call and tries to get it solved through me and I kind of baby spoon him for the solution. This is a repeated practice and I am sick of it. Sometimes I thought to confront him but then I kind of push myself back thinking how he might feel about it.
Please give me genuine suggestions on what should I do? Should I discuss this with my manager/lead? Or something else
PS: He is elder than me but we are on same designation.
Never give a complete solution, the current arbitrage is : your teammate spending hours trying to figure it out, or hopping on a 30 min call with you. Your teammate seems to be fully leveraging this. Restrict your inputs only to helpful hints, tasks and never complete solutions. Either your teammate will learn or find someone else to call :).
Makes sense, thanks for the tip
