No such trouble for me, thank goodness
Let me firstly say that I 100% agree with all of the above. And secondly, I don’t work in tech.
But I think most of the frustration from the grey beards is possibly because they’re burnt out. They’ve probably been answering the same questions their entire life. And there comes a point when the actual answer becomes, RTFM.
I don’t agree it’s an appropriate response. The mere fact that the acronym has profanity in it suggests it’s an aggressive response.
I’ve been on forums before where, instead of saying “RTFM”, someone had just linked me to the appropriate man page… Essentially the same message, but far more helpful and a much less insulting.
In my opinion it’s not wrong to tell someone to read the manual if the answer is in it, but it’s how you say it that matters.


If it works, don’t try to fix it
Lol, wait till you have kids. They garden will be dead and gone and you’ll be so tired that one drink will put you to sleep.
Grayjay is hands down the best
