It is always important to ask why. It's somewhat like that little kid that's continually asked why over and over until you must admit defeat or give an answer that leaves nothing to question. This is something that many times we don't do in the real world. We are told something and we accept it, I think that is a problem sometimes questioning authority is the only rational thing to do. If not we are not as knowledgable and risk becoming mindless drones. Though many individuals will find this a nuisance it is required to solve certain problems and should be practiced more often.

The 5 whys are very important. Behind every technical problem, the root is always a human's fault. The 5 whys allow people to get to the bottom of there problem by asking why. I will use this in my own career from here on out.

The 5 Why's is a great strategy for employees to use, especially when a newcomer to a company. A lot of times, when employees ask why managers just throw in a quick excuse instead of explaining the true situation, but if they would allow employees to truly understand the problem or situation everyone could work together to come to a solution.

I think that this video is interesting. Finding a cause to a problem is important to a large company. Asking why until you get to the root of the problem seems like it takes digging through some layers to find the cause. While most people would blame the first person, expect them to fix the problem, and then move on.
