The amount of people that don't read instructions is ridiculous. They exist for a reason. I always read every manual for everything. Every car I've had, I read the manual front to back. My turtle's new fancy water filter, read it front to back. Furniture, tech, anything, you name it. I guess I'M the outlier so I must be the weird one.

I've literally had to write documentation at work for a single step procedure for help desk. It consisted of me screenshotting something, circling a button in red with a red arrow pointing to it because our help desk people are incompetent.
