It's true. I don't know what years 8-10 feel like. But author is not asking that.
I gave advice for author's question: _How do you go from the "new clueless person at work" to "oh hey Mike, I'll need your help this afternoon"?_
My advice merely helps the author to speed up the process to get there.
In addition, I never join and plan on leaving in 1 year. In contracting, sometimes you work a month, sometimes 4 years. But you always go all in, regardless of the assignment.

- vertigolimbo 5y agoWhy so much negativity? Are you aware that there's this whole side called "contracting"? Agile made it very dynamic - sometimes assignment is completed sooner that agreed because company's priorities change. Sometimes you stay longer because they need your help. I've been to many gigs where burned out or incompetent permanent (!) employees made a complete mess almost running company to a ground. Incompetent leads, even CTOs desperate for a fix. Yet, as a contractor you come and help the companies * * there are incompetent or selfish contractors as well.
