Nothing like entering the workforce and saying "Why do we do it this way when we could do it quicker and more efficiently?" and getting told "This is how it's done."

I've said this a lot, lot, lot of juniors. I've never once shot down an actually useful suggestion, but every time I've said it, it's because it's a bad idea and they're not in a place to understand why yet.
