    At work few freshers have joined as trainees, who are allocated different mentors. As most of today’s generation goes (of course I talk like a granny, but get my gist, I am talking about a whooping 8 year difference between basic schooling) youngsters are inquisitive, energetic, full of enthusiasm.
