TIL: This is a really interesting perspective; Thank You for this! I will use it from now to calm myself down. I, always either got mortified by the extreme skill of my juniors or by the incompetence of seniors — not sure if it’s the case with me or is it a general feeling.
The Kendo way at-least makes me ignore the titles :)
