I personally like the comment about scrolling through the word help board. There are questions posted on that board every single day that if an MT doesn't know the answer to, they should be working at home alone yet at all. This is basic stuff.

It doesn't do any good to preach though because some folks just have to find out themselves. Reminds me of 10-15 years ago when I was hiring MTs and would get the calls from the folks who knew they could do this job because their kids were sick all the time and thy were always in and out of the doctors office and knew medical terminology. I quit wasting my breath with that a long time ago!
