I am one of the few lucky ones to have a mentor... they deserve some recognition! I propose we make next Friday, May 14th (5.14... see what I did there?) Mentors Day! Give them a gift inspired by an inside joke, a hug, or even a card! They've earned it!

Please, share some stories about your mentors! Here's mine: https://rantingsonyaxis.blogspot.com/2021/05/shout-out-to-mentors.html

I guess mentors are a greater rarity than I thought...

Sooner or later, they're no longer a mentor but a partner. Mostly sooner. And I doubt they do that for the recognition.

I’ll be available today, to mentor anyone available through the hardships of 5.9

That's what my mentor said to me, that he wants me to be his partner in the future. That's why I appreciate him... I need a partner too. Plus he's a fun dude to be around! I think they deserve at least a thank you for showing us the ropes...

I guess I was the only one to get this going... I had fun with it though! Was able to climb yesterday with my mentor! 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
