RTFM


For those that remember the BOFH, this was one of his accronyms - RTFM.. it meant read the f*****g manual and anyone involved in IT support invariably comes across a moment when it is apparent that the user hasn't even read the basics and a big sigh will escape as you are going to have to explain it to them in simple enough terms that they might begin to see the light... if all else fails you might have to kill them (just kidding)
