being intern they might not know less. ive worked jobs where i was the new guy, others had been there for 20 years and i knew more than they did. cant judge knowlege by seniority

Nexion12738y@itsmill3rtime right but the things he is claiming are just plain incorrect. It's clear he is talking out of his ass
-
Nexion12738y@azous I did. Told him why he was wrong and he still tried to talk around it. Just one of those "I'm never wrong" types

When they are talking they cannot learn. Do them a favor - if they are talking more than you there is a problem. Have them fix that. Listening is a lost skill with too many of people.

Syro658yI was an intern along with another guy at my current company. I would always ask questions about the code and practice and felt I was being a real burden on my mentor. Felt really bad about it, too, but I wanted to make sure I understand. The other intern always 'understand'.
By the time the company let the other intern go, my mentor and I became buddies. He told me that my constant questions was a good thing even for him because it helped him learn his material more in depth when he had to teach it to me.
We have a couple of interns since but they're doing the same thing the other one did. Not sure why they have to act like they know everything and/or able to pick up new material quickly. They strive to be prodigy when no one expects them to. Is it personality or influence of the work environment? -
nabil6131158y@Syro agreed with your point. Currently im on my internship. I do ask a lot regarding the task i get. I do feel like a burden to my mentor because he still got his other job responsibilities like supporting client.

No, intern. You do not know more than I do. Stop talking.
