I do enjoy the feedback and the more negative the better imo as that is a learning experience, plus I can’t handle praise.
I can relate to forgetting things I’ve done before but I agree, we work in this field as we like to solve problems and we are arrogant enough to think (know) we can just Google the answers to everything.
Speaking of docs, I got called out for Googling (with the SE) how to show the long day name using Moment. It is ‘dddd’. I was Googling and just clicking stackoverflow kinda out of habit until she said slow down, go back, let’s go to the moment docs and click on formats. We found the answer much quicker so I need to get in the habit of checking the official docs first.
Also, that meme is perfect. Self esteem goes up and down in this job. I think a lot of my worries will be here until probation is over and that I am safe.
Imposter syndrome isn’t fun.
