What would you do if you were in this situation?
If I were in your shoes, this is what I would do before quitting (which is what you're essentially doing) and asking to be reassigned.Raise your concerns to the Team Lead. It is his/her role and responsibility to mentor and guide less experienced developers. If he/she refuses to do so, I would have to say that he/she doesn't belong in that role.Don't expect your hand to be held. It's your responsibility to be proactive and grow in your role. Take the time and opportunity to learn. If you have no desire or passion to improve, then as Glenn stated, you're probably in the wrong line of work.Ask the lead if he/she wouldn't mind pair coding and/or helping you out by conducting peer (coding) reviews. Feedback is very helpful in fostering growth.Ask to work on other parts of the code that are a little less challenging. I'm not suggesting you to take the easy route, yet rather, to work in areas that you're more familiar with, while still having exposure to the more complex parts of the project. Eventually, with time and practice, the design patterns will all come together. Look at it this way. If you're working on a large puzzle, as you get closer to solving it, you start recognizing the image/pattern and it usually gets easier at figuring out where the pieces belong.Stay motivated and don't give up! If you like your work and what you do, stay passionate and try not to be disenchanted. Like anything in life, you'll have your struggles and will need to work hard. Training for a marathon can't possibly happen over night, yet alone a couple weeks. It takes dedication and commitment.Good luck.

What would you do if you were in the same situation I am at work?
I've been working for 8 months in that company and so far I have not had any lateness nor have I missed any day or had any medical leave. There seems to be an unspoken rule there that you cannot take two weeks off in a row. I gave it a try anyway but, SURPRISE! my vacation request was rejected. I decided to trade two working holidays with a coworker in order to take 7 vacation days and she accepted. But now my boss is saying that in order for me to trade with her I need to make her write an e-mail to him and the manager acknowledging she will take full responsibility of my job and hers while I'm out. We are eachother's designated back up and I haven't had to do that for her when she leaves on vacation. I asked my boss why I had to do that this time and he said it was because we were trading coverage and that would increase my absence to seven working days. What advice can you give me? What should I do?
What would you do in this situation??
So I have been working at my hotel job for 10 months now and in the past month Ive worked overtime every week because of other employees calling in. Im not a manager or a supervisor...Im an 18 year old girl trying to make it through school and I thought by taking other peoples hours I would get some respect and maybe a raise. Ive called in probaly 4 times since Ive worked here from being sick...And Ive been late a few time in the past but not anytime recently. One of the people who calls in all the time has missed about 10 days in the last month and about 20 days since Ive worked her and she has more hours then me next week. They moved me down to 19 hours out of no where. Ive been busting my *** and it seems like no one appreciates it or cares. I even took a 12 hour shift today!!! I love my job very much and enjoy it alot...but I feel disrespected and unappreciated. What should I do?
What should I do in this situation?
Bro!!! You were in the same situation previously I were 2 years ago. I also worked with Infosys joining as a fresher. But the thing I have to remind you the most is you're from an ECE background (assuming you're love on Electronics as I used to have the same feel)and you're working in a IT company. You clearly mentioned you're good at C,C++ and some other things. But coding in C,C++is mostly required in companies involved in product development and they mostly go for guys from CS/IT background. Some companies also allow EE students too. But as far as I know no Product companies go for EC students unless you are excellent and proven in those languages. Proof means you have attended some coding competitions, won them those all stuff you should have. You should check yourself if you're in that creamy layer so you can compete equally with CS students. Paying Bond amount in Infosys is an optional thing if you don't want work experience certificate and you're not joining an IT company thereafter. Because I came to know that they will block IT PIN if you won't pay the amount. If you're joining core and work-ex doesn't need for you then its not a big deal. You're the designer of your own future. You shouldn't regret for choosing wrong path in your life Take decisions wisely. Don't ruin your future. First prove yourself in the thing whatever you do. I did the same.

What would you do in the situation when you are forced to do a work about which you know a bit less?
Research it, before giving up. If I understand it, then I would attempt to do it, before I fail. Even if I fail, I would have learnt a bit about something new.
What would you do in a situation where you are working against your will you have no interest whatsover and it kills you inside on the other hand it is necessary and has to be done for a few more months so that everything works out well in life?
At least you apparently only have a few months to go before you can quit/retire or whatever you plan to do. I spent years at a soul-killing job that was intensely frustrating to me on multiple levels. It was hell for me having to drag myself into work and go through the motions and deal with all the never-ending crap every day. I’d liked the job at first, but later on it became too draining. I wanted to change to something else, but there was nothing else I was trained for that would earn me a comparable salary and benefits. Plus, I was a single mother who needed to work full time to support myself and my kid. I didn’t have any real support system, and didn’t have the time, energy or money to go back to school to train for something else. So I was stuck.What I had to do to survive was to think of all the things I had to be thankful for. Seriously. Even though I hated my job, at least I had a decent income. Many people don’t have any medical benefits, and I was fortunate enough to have them. I lived within a 10 min. drive to work, so didn’t have to fight freeway traffic to commute. I thought of people who have to work hard on their feet all day for only minimum wage. I didn’t have to do that. I made enough money to support us in a decent middle-class lifestyle. I didn’t have money for traveling to Disney World for vacation or anything like that, but we were OK. When my son was older, I didn’t have to spend money on babysitters anymore or worry about what I was going to do if the sitter cancelled on me. I didn’t have to live in a bad part of town or a shabby apartment complex. And I didn’t have to live on the streets. At least my son and I were healthy and functional. At least neither of us had suffered any trauma or major losses.I mean, I seriously thought of everything I could think of to be thankful for when my mind started rattling off all the things I hated about my job and all the ways it drove me crazy. I still bitched and moaned to co-workers, and we commiserated about all the problems we faced on the job. If we could laugh about it and make jokes about it, it made things feel more tolerable. And I ranted in my journal, filling up pages and pages of my work complaints. It was a way for me to vent, and get a handle on things. Those were my basic coping mechanisms. Towards the end, I was counting down the days till I could retire. And now, finally, I am retired and LOVING it. Best wishes.
How can I handle an unfair situation at work?
If your performance is unfairly evaluated, you still have rights to escalate a re-evaluation of your performance. As long as your numbers are in place and you are meeting the key deliverable’s in your KRA’s. You have a right to bring it in your supervisor’s attention. Or his supervisor’s attention, if need be. If your performance in your assigned tasks is accurate and without discrepancy, feel free to boldly reach out to your seniors and share your experience. Just ensure that your communications are always professional, polite and in a requesting manner. Aggression takes a better form, when you confidently put across your request for re-analysis. People who never give up, definitely find their space.All the best!
How would you handle a work situation where your boss skipped your scheduled performance appraisal because he said you are doing great, but gave you a small raise later saying there are things you need to do better?
If your boss told you the things you need to do better, focus on doing them better.If your boss didn’t tell you, then ask them, and do those things better.If the boss didn’t tell you then just do your best.Meanwhile asses your iwn value, analyze the job market and your likelihood of doing better. If you think you can do better then start looking.In the big picture, while your boss should have paid more attention to your performance evaluation, but even a small raise is moving forward, and you may well be earning what’s right for your position.
