I have been working like crazy lately. All in the name of finishing on time. I feel really lucky in my career right now. I have a job, and I have been trusted with more and more responsibility. I am always nervous when I have to work on something new, but I ask questions to things I don't know and figure things out on my own that I can.
I would say I have kung fu to thank on how I approach and learn my trade. I am willing to learn and not afraid to ask questions if needed, but it's not just random questions. They are quality questions that helped me better understand what I was doing.
I do run into some people who will be condescending to me because of my question, but then they said sorry when they heard the whole context. I am showed to that listening to someones question is just as important as asking. Asking the right question could help me figure it out without them ever saying a thing, or saying the question in the right way to convey what I am trying to figure out and learn. Interestingly enough sometimes I still get to learn something new even knowing they did not answer my question yet. So of course I ask it again with better wording, but I still got valuable information; that I did not even know that I wanted.
