It seems to me that there are two types of newbie

The first type joins the team and actually does work, makes contributions, and earns the respect of the senior members of our team.

The second type just joins for the heck of it. They don't do much on the team, and often end up quitting the team.

When I joined TJē, I was definitely a member of the second group. As a rookie, I had no idea what I was doing, and subsequently, didn't travel. My second year, I did contribute, then finally became useful in my third year, co-leading the administrative team.

So anyway, the moral of this story is- don't give up on newbie failures. They can still learn.
