I have to say that since starting I’ve had a lot less support than I was expecting and I’ll be given something to do but very sparse direction. I’ll go away and do my best and usually be told that based on the little guidance I have done good but maybe we could do it this way or that way, which is great as that’s how we learn right?

Also, preface saying that I’m working on a Typescript React app alone as the others have other projects.

So queue today. I’ve got a todo list of questions about my implementation and things I could do better, which they like my diligence of keeping track. Well I was working on a component and like an idiot I hard coded a lot of the data that is subject to change if say they add a new let’s say PetType. So the SE comes over, tears my code to shreds and like a wizard makes it work even better with only dynamic use of data.

I don’t mind the tearing my code to shreds as again it’s a learning experience but my self esteem has dropped off a cliff.
