Re: Conflict with Mentor

Kimmeh,

I know many people on my team have had problems with the mentors and their final opinions. I even was a part of one myself with the drivers on our team. Although it ended in my favor, I know the person that was put out was very upset about the situation. The best thing I told him was to realize that this isn't because you're bad in anyway. This happened to help us become better. The best thing was he was proud of me and our drive team isn't just one driver but all of us communicating to achieve victory.

I know your situation was much different. Next year, show them that you can be a leader and present in a great way. That way, you are the first to be chosen. Most things are politics and we have to live with them. Hell, I play football and all around it's either who is good or not or who they like the most. Impress them Kimmeh with all you got and be yourself. Things happen for a reason and you just need to shine above them!

REMEMBER!!! Actions Speak Louder Than Words!

"While I was a student in FIRST, it was all about becoming inspired. Now as a mentor/engineering student, it's all about making sure learn everything I can so I can carry that on inspiration for future generations while having a hell of a lot of fun!"
