User: your python script is giving me error, <insert stack trace indicating a missing directory on the system path>

Me: Did you add the directory to the path

User: yes

Walks over to desk checks path, finds a space after the semicolon separator before the directory.

Removes space, problem fixed

Why Windows, why can't you just strip the white space.

Returns to desk, hides underneath and waits out the end of the day 😿
