Re: What Do You Wish You Would Have Known Your Rookie Year?

1. 10 amp fuses don't exist.
2. "Finding the aluminum stretcher" is a clever way of saying "You messed up, kid."
(Yeah, the amount of cynicism on the team my rookie year was startling.)
3. FIRST is more about people than robots. Incidentally, people still call it "Robot Club."
4. Don't be afraid to talk to the mentors, no matter how intimidating they may be.
