I’m self taught and I’ve seen some of this baffling entitlement up close.
In my previous role, I had a direct report that was a talented designer who was also good and fast with React.
I put him on a project where we needed to use both Express and jQuery. He asked if there was some way to trigger when the browser has loaded everything. I got to mentor him a bit, and he’s a better engineer now, but boy howdy, we covered a lot of basics. He spent his free time living life away from screens.
He was pushing for six-figures in every other one-on-one during our last six months together.
