Tom Schmidt: "Now we are seeing evidence of new people (if not new workload) ... and we COMPLAIN about helping them?!? "
Just to set the record straight, I thought I tried pretty hard to avoid complaining; except for the little bit about reading the manual first. Bob Shannon: "they are taught to take problems as far as they can before asking for help. That is part of the learning/teaching paradigm." I agree, and it also strengthens their skills for the long term. Knowing how to use the reference materials is one reason I survived here so long, when (way back) the really experienced guys left for IBM and elsewhere.
