Sadly, while question-asking is encouraged, question-answering is not. I can't count how many times I've asked something--to the group as a whole or to an individual--and it's just been ignored.
Do you find the "sink or swim" the best technique, or just the way it's done?
- shogun21 11y agoDoes everyone have someone they know they can go to for questions? I've had times where asking a question to a group, it could be ignored (everyone assumes someone else will take care of it). But if you can have a one-on-one with someone, I haven't had those instances ignored. That's just how it's been done. I do think, though, the best way to learn a system is to work on internal, non-critical projects.
