I love freshman. They are usually really willing to learn. Lots of times we use the phrasing "rookie" or "freshman" when they do something wrong i.e. "oops i forgot right was tight" *shakes head and say "freshman"
Most of our freshman are really great, one is the only one who knows entirely how to run the CNC machine and Mastercam (we LOVE him, he doesn't deburr very much) and willing to listen. But sometimes they don't know exactly what to do and stand there, so you have to take them in.
This is a little of topic, but two of our freshman on animation were a LOT mischivioius and deleted the almost finished animation (on purpose, they thought it didn't look good, LONG complicated story) and little discplinary action was taken, but we're working on that. So if you see our animation, it was done in like 2 days, not EVEN, its really really good for deleting it (even from the trash bin, so it was really hard recover) But they kinda alienate themselves......
anyway, i like MOST freshman
