I’m sure you have heard that there is no such thing as a stupid question. In some ways, I can agree. You should always ask questions when you are uncertain about a specific subject and/or matter. However, everyone, including me, has their own limit as to how much questioning they can take. The worst thing that I personally hate is when you get asked the same question over and over again. Before you know it, you?ll probably want to scream at the top of your lungs.
To them I say:
I don’t understand why more people, especially techies, wont google it instead of asking those same dumb questions. Is it that most of them are lazy individuals that would prefer to take the easy route and ask first? Well, to some extent we are to blame only because we enable that sort of activity to happen again and again.
This brings me to one of my favorite sigs from none other than Bart Simpson:
“I will use google.com BEFORE asking stupid questions.”
-Bart Simpson
Gotta love Bart Simpson for setting us all straight.
I totally agree. I continually have the same people asking the same questions and it gets really really old. I just need to setup an autoresponder that says “Did you check google first”
