Learned Helplessness

A disease for which the main symptom is never learning how to do simple tasks for yourself. Always asking others to do things for you--especially in the workplace. A carrier of the disease is usually fully dependent on coworkers and the employees below them.
"Hey Susie, I'm going to need you to put postage on this for me. I just never learned how to use the postage machine...I have learned helplessness"

"I've had learned helplessness ever since I got promoted to CEO. Can you copy this double-sided for me? I just can't bring myself to figure it out."

"The children were free to explore, went to movies if they wished, could spend the day skateboarding, reading, or doing science experiments like making potato guns or rockets. Sometimes they spent prolonged hours online or at the library researching their current obsession and over the course of several years all became rogue learners, and eventually each one a success in a wide variety of fields. None of them had a degree, or even a high school diploma."
