"Dilettante" and "Apprentice" - The difference.
Both the words mean "the New Person at Workplace".
The difference is in the way these two new person approach to their work.
The "Dilettante" comes to work and keeps looking around as if this is a wonderful place to work. He pretends to have deep knowledge, but his knowledge is shallow. He now and then touches work but he lacks inner commitment to work.
Whereas, "Apprentice" shows deep commitment to work. He wants to learn fast and he wants to overcome his apprenticeship period very fast. He wants to make out a shinning career in his work.
