In Major League Baseball rookie players are routinely hazed and players who get called up "too quickly" (not spending years and years in the minors, "honing their craft") are subject to special abuse for not "paying their dues", usually by journeyman players with a fraction of their talent.

Craftmanship is important but so is talent.
Paying their dues is for some a waste of time and talent.
