I am not Google!

I like getting interesting reference questions, it's half of the reason why I chose this profession and it can be fun and interesting to learn along with a patron the answer to their question. That being said, I feel like I need to create myself a badge that says "I am not Google!" for all the people who approach me with their questions and are annoyed that I have to look the answer up and don't know it off the top of my head.
Want to become a licensed home daycare provider? You need to find out if your car was recalled? Not sure which microwave to buy? There was a documentary on some channel last night and you want to know who was the narrator?
Yes, I can help you with these questions, but it is just not instantaneous! I wonder if we are creating a super impatient breed of people for the future.
