Key thing to realize about being the new person is that sometimes people will teach you things because you need to learn, and sometimes they'll teach you things (you already know) because they're learning how to teach, and that's fine

There's always a chance you don't know it as well as you think you do anyway. I like learning the same thing from different people, it helps me fill in a more complete picture of how a task works, why it's done.

(on the ship, we use this method I had never seen before called the 'rolling hitch;' you make your initial hitch and then pull it straight to transfer the loop to the standing end of the line)

Indeed. One of the things my dad taught me, that I now teach my kids: Everyone needs to learn *how to* learn. Learning is a skill, in and of itself. What's shocked me most is how true it is, and how many people actually lack it.
