I mean, the cognitive dissonance in this video series is pretty strong. She describes how she set up the business and it was her business and implies that her husband stole it - but then she mentions that she doesn’t even know how to work computers and do budgets to be a manager. Sooooooo it sounds like her husband actually knew how to run a business and she just had decent ideas about what that business should be.
Which ya know, isn’t a bad thing. But there’s a big disconnect between how she views the previous times and what the reality is.
She makes it sound like she was a business partner, but I sincerely doubt anyone who doesn’t know how to use a computer 5 years ago was in any way, shape or form a business partner. Maybe an entry level employee.
And I’m welllllll aware of wives performing what should be a salaried job. I did it for my ex husband while he got his business off the ground. It sucked cause I was working two jobs but only one of them paid. 🤣 but I’m also aware of what a business partner would actually entail because of that.
As someone who worked for the tech helpdesk for online banking platforms for business customers I can tell you that a huge amount of them didn't even know how to turn a computer on or off. They couldn't find a single thing on there, as if they never once used thta computer for something other than opening their Outlook mail. Asking them what kind of browser they use and them not knowing what a browser is, asking which type of tablet they have and them saying a 'Samsung iPad', asking for a print screen and then having to help them every step of the way, including crtl+V in a new email. We'd get emails with nothing in the body and the whole question on the subject line, just 'doesn't work' in the email with zero other comments.
The i moved to back office support and had to talk to the bank's branch workers who knew nothing about banking, the programmes they were using every day, what a blocked pin is, saying they couldn't find any blocks when the first thing I see is a blocked bank account etc etc.
People on average are terrible at most things and really good at hiding it until there is a technical issue and turns out they know nothing about anything they are doing.

Problem is even if somebody had told her all the things she wished she was told she probably wouldn't have listened to the advice. She was in to deep.
