take you under their wing
the early bird catches the worm
there is no time like the present

Not offered a paid job.
Work too slowly.
Came late.
Didn't talk to others. Never talked in meetings. Never talked with team members.
Waited to be told what to do. Always sat alone.

Told management his way was better. Wanted to go faster and do more as soon as starting his placement.
Not willing and able to learn.
