I only get frustrated if you don't ask me questions. I want you to ask me questions. I enjoy helping people and seeing them learn.

I remember being an intern and the same situation. I was always afraid that I would bother my leads. I learned being there longer to never be afraid to ask questions.

My advice: don't be afraid to ask questions. But also do not be afraid to ask WHY we are doing something a certain way and why not this way. What I like to see more than anything is for someone to learn why or why not we are doing things and not just taking whatever we say as the gospel.
