And, yes, the new crop seem to be a lot less deep in their background ... which would be fine if they were willing to explore on their own. When I came to $EMPLOYER, most of my IT peer group had much more experience than I did. But they all had extablished limits and rarely went beyond them.

A lot of the new staff seem to have established limits without any background upon which to base them. They just don't do any extra training ... not self-directed training, anyway.
