Having had to deal with a few people who were in your position, here are a few points to consider. - Realize that you being cocky at the beginning likely didn't help you with the way your coworkers are treating you. - NEVER pretend that you know or that you understood something unless you really do. Its okay to not understand something, everyone knows that if you do not admit it, you'll never learn and therefore are a lost cause. This is the major problem I have seen with people in your situation. - Do not get caught in details, focus on understanding the big picture and get the basics right. Always put things in perspective. - Volunteer to do grunt work, will make you gain experience and put things in perspective. - When something isn't clear, do not assume it works in a way thats practical to what you are doing and go on, go ask instead. Otherwise you doing grunt work will lose everyone's time. - When you don't understand something, explain what you understand or how you see thing and why, let your perception be corrected. - Do not get yourself too tired by studying outside of work. Some study is fine but you need rest to learn and perform.
