Hi,
I’m new to UX in the commercial kind. Recently started working for a startup on the design of their tool. The tool is pretty complicated and as much as I am trying to understand every bit of it, I sometimes can’t. A prototype of it has been created some time ago, and I am working off this prototype. Sometimes re-creating stuff, sometimes re-designing, or adding or taking stuff away. Nevertheless, recently I started getting questions like “Why is this thing called X, not Y”, “should this thing be named Z?, are you sure this is the correct naming?”, or “what is this thing doing”. And basically, I’m like… how should I know, dude? I’m working off your project!! You tell me. But now I’m wondering if… maybe I should know this thing? Or if not… how should I handle these kinds of questions? To be honest, I’m pretty annoyed with my boss as he wants to stay informed about every little thing. It came to the situation that he gets notified about every change in the project, update, commit, whatever and comments on thah, even when he knows that something is not the final design (today, he looked through the project, decided that a title of a table is not necessary, put the comment on Zeplin and did not forget to add the same comment to EVERY instance of this title). Help me please
