When does being a Newbie cease ?

A year. After that you're no longer a newbie.

Newbies are still trying to figure out the basics. You'll never learn everything there is to know about this business, but after a year you'll have seen most of the major surprises, and by then you'll be able to at least effectively deal with any new surprises that come your way.

If you're still trying to figure out the basics after a year, it doesn't mean you're still a newbie, it means you're either stupid, or astoundingly unobservant, or both.

Blunt and to the point, Wow Turtle, I'm impressed:rolleyes:

Ya know ..... I got to thinkin (very dangerous) - at what point does the title of "newbie" drop off ? What does a "newbie" then graduate to being called ? (be nice).

Speaking of thinking, did you ever stop to think....and then forget to start again?

Ever get out of the shower, and as you are drying off, you realize that you forgot to rinse the shampoo out of your hair?

That used to happen to my grandma all the time. And she was bald.

As I started this post it's fair to say I've gotten great feedback and.... learned (seems to be one of the key words to stay in the biz).

Just as important, I didn't expect it but also got a few laughs out of this post. :D

All you guys/gals are a piece of work !!!!

Glad we could amuse you. I think we amused ourselves.

All kidding aside, You never stop thinking of yourself as a newbie.
At least, I don't. I am always learning something new.

Welcome to our world. :p
