Re: Let's Put the Professionalism back in Gracious Professionalism

Professionalism usually comes after experience. We have to realize that FIRST is made up of High School students, which means they have a long way to go until they're truly professional.

I've had very personal experience with the lack of professional behavior by teams, and I wish I could say it was a rare incident. However, it seems that GP is only something to be touted when someone isn't following it, or when it's time to pack up and head to the competitions. If FIRST students took GP to heart, we'd see a lot less complaining about issues, and lot more solutions being posted.
