Rookie...

Experienced speed builders know that if you have two people, the second person should sort parts and stage them for your next few steps, not try to help assemble.

(My son was on a team that set the world's record for assembling an Imperial Star Destroyer, 10 people, under an hour total build time from unboxing to complete, no errors)

I'll even excitedly look forward to "flags and footprints" and suborbital missions. Just fly...somewhere.
