Hi Scott,
I'm sure that in most companies in the 1980s, if you as a junior sysprog had
continually approached the seniors with queries without first consulting the
available manuals, you would not very quickly have progressed in your career.
But there certainly were those types around, the ones with loud voices,
confident demeanour and sharp dress sense
would usually leave to join the big consultancy companies :)
I'm not sure if it's more prevalent today, or just more noticeable, now that
the Internet has become the Universal Textbook.
