Would you trust a newbie??

Recommended Posts

This is something I've been thinking about. I've been practicing law for a little less than three years. Some people are concerned about my lack of experience. Others actually prefer my youth, thinking that I've got the newest knowledge. I think both are wrong.

SO, I guess my question should be, "What circumstances would have you trust somebody doing something for you for the first time?"

I'd trust a newbie with anything straightforward that needed more knowledge than I have. Contracts with people I trust, divorces from people I trust, etc.

Once I'm dealing with chicanery, or situations that can get very convoluted, I'd want the help of someone who has been there and done that in a lot of situations.

that's good advice for any part of life, no matter how experienced you are...

I'm an eye doc, have been for almost 5 years. I am female and look like I'm barely 20, though I'm 30. The first comment I get is 'I wasn't expecting a girl doctor' to which I look down at my ample chest and say 'thanks, I hadn't noticed'. When asked how old I am, how long I've been doing this, etc. I giggle like a total ditz, and say 'I graduated yesterday and you are my 3rd patient!'. Getting people to laugh generally relaxes them. Once they are at ease, it's pretty obvious that I know my shit.

I had a friend of mine pack my reserve right after he got his riggers license. It was his first unsupervised pack job. He had me print the directions from the internet for him. There's nothing like watching a kid that was a couple years younger than me staring at the Reflex packing manual saying "what the heck is this picture supposed to be showing me??" while packing my reserve. He started at about 11:30pm. Finished somewhere around 5am. At least I knew he did a thorough job!
