Mylots i am sure you have heard it from your teachers saying there is no such thing as a stupid question but sometimes there is a fine line between what is a real question and what is a stupid question. So tell what is one of those stupid question you have heard through out your life period?

i told one client to send his files via bluetooth so that i can print it, he then ask me if my bluetooth is on! :) another customer ask me if how much is 15pesos/hr on my rental price tag.. sometimes people are lazy to think a bit before asking..

Well there are rarely times where a question is a stupid question. However, the people asking the question can be another manner entirely. I mean, I am sure that in their minds it is a pretty valid and logic question, but if you really think about it, that question is not as smart as you would think it is. If they gave it about ten seconds of thought, they might think, "hmmm, maybe this is not the smartest question to ask". Of course, that will be giving a lot of people that I deal with from day to day a bit too much credit. Far too much credit if truth be told. Therefore you will always have people asking those questions that just make you want to smack your head into something. Especially those "what are you doing?" questions when it could not be more obvious what I was doing. That does frustrate me so very much.

oh a stupid question is one for which one knows the answer or is clear but still choose to ask it.
