Intelligence and debugging skills. Also being able to step through code in my head.

After a few months finally got and accepted a job offer, starting the 19th. Now its all nerves and learning another system. Feeling like i know nothing, but know google will become my best friend again

To know the most efficient datatypes, functions, etc, and syntax for whichever language and framework I'm currently using.

Is it just me or are there others who like programming and enjoy the work but just can't do it all day. After 10 hours I don't even want to look at a screen much less code more or read about it.

YES, take that chrome debugger extension i got you to show my page! I have errors, hell yeah i can deal with i didn't include js files!

Okay chrome debugger extension in vs code where the fuck is my page. Why the hell cant I see it you hateful son of a bitch.

My default google search: I am a fucking moron how the fuck do I [insert problem] when i know nothing about it.

Trying to update and add to my skills. Let's try angular,. Visual Studio sucks for this. Hey look vs code, this looks great.... Install, add some recommended extensions... Cool. Add eslint, hey look at these errors awesome I'm getting somewhere. WTF dont use var use let.. Ok why... Hours later and one drink, okay that makes sense. Change code.....
Unexpected declaration wtf why. Switch to var... Dont use var..... Fuck me... Google, read, google, read...... Wtf why why why won't this fucking work... I just want to code something using best practices

Every damn job interview and rejection letter. Especially when I think i would like to work there.

The other month i went into work, excited to actually get something done. On top of that it was yearly bonus day. Quick check on adp to see the bonus and nothing there. Email my boss and ask whats up. Ten minutes later i am unemployed after two years because of a cultural fit. No warnings, nothing bd said about my work, made all the deadlines. Guess they didnt want to say budget cut. Haven't replaced me yet.
