If I surpass my mentor in doing something, would he be happy or unhappy?
I have to say I have been learning from my mentor for more than ten years. I appreciate him very much. Recently, a colleague sent quizzes (relevant to our profession) to many other colleagues, including my mentor and me. Firstly, I dare not to answer, then I tried and sometime I won. In the last times, I answered quicker than my mentor, so my name was put in front of my mentor's name in the winner's list. Would he be happy or unhappy? I think I am like his daughter, so he would be proud of me because of that. But we are also colleagues, maybe he would feel lose face. Should I stop participating the quizzes? But the quizzes are really very interesting.
