HELP ME OUT
Maybe you all can explain why the no0bs, and some vets, don't understand what the "Search" function is for.
Any opinions are appreciated and welcome as I can't seem to figure it out myself.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Ken,
In my company, I tend to deal with the "twenty somethings" quite abit. This is an age cohort that is very conditioned by instant gratification.
They do want to go thru the trouble of searching, they just want the answer.
IF you like, along with my T&A duties, I can add n00b Patrol?

Oh, the truth comes out at last! You hate "twenty somethings"... real cool Bebe!
The problem is...young adults these days work more than you old folks do. We don't have the time to waste searching for stuff, not to mention it's way smarter to just ask the question, piss off some people and be done with it!
We aren't accustomed to having to wait 6 months for someone to deliver and return a message via horseback like you all were when you were "twenty something"! When we want information, we want it now w/o any hassle. You can't just expect us to change overnight.
You better get used to our instant gratification deal pretty soon, as you already are or will be in nursing homes and we (twenty somethings) will be caring for you. We don't have time to wait around and let you die either if you get what I'm saying...
And for the non "twenty somethings" not using the search engine, that's just ****ed up.

Re: HELP ME OUT
MmmmmHmmm.
No don't hate them D, but when you have answered the 150th friking phone call with some kid asking how to do something, and all the instructions are on the table in front of them.....it gets beyond annoying.
Learn something from us old folks, take the time to search for the information....you'll absorb more. It will increase your IQ points
And, you'll get better at research.....

Re: HELP ME OUT
"Searching" will produce mostly garbage because of the thousands of garbage posts associated with each topic. What the noobie is hoping for is the Readers Digest version of the useful info on the topic. He knows that somebody has the answer. At least he can hope.
