Matt, your articles are always so fresh and real. Your words, "your experience qualifies you for the task of learning how to do the job. Only practice can make you competent at performing it. Everybody knows this, but it’s rarely properly acknowledged." helped me to see that it's ok not to know how to do a job. I have plenty of experience in different fields, and companies that choose to interview me are doing so because they think I can do the job. This has given me the confidence to step out and apply for jobs I know I can eventually do once I'm trained. Thanks for your simple explanations on the crazy work scene.
