My time is just as valuable as yours. It's human nature, When a novice user is confronted with a new challenge and a manual, two things may occur. If the Sysadmin (support staff, lead, etc...) is in line of site or known to be in the office/building, the user will give the manual a cursory glance and at the first sign of trouble, yell for the Sysadmin or pick up the phone and call him/her for assistance. In this case, THE LIST takes the place of the sysadmin. It's the old proverb: "When all else fails, read the manual" However, if the user is in isolation , the user will be more apt to read the manual more carefully as they are not guaranteed of getting voice/List support.
