The fear of asking for help
- It is a "silly" or "stupid" question. THERE IS NO BATHROOM!, I mean THERE IS NO SILLY/STUPID QUESTION!
- I will be judged! FALSE! Asking for help shows you want to learn and that you can rely on your team or peers or the internet for help. This comes down to TRUST
- Not knowing how
- Imposter syndrome
How to ask for help
There are a couple of different ways to ask for help, these being:
- Solo, asking the internet (stack overflow)
- In a team (hopefully you are using some kind of real time chat such as Slack)
-
-
- Public question in a channel
- With a video
What to ask and what to provide:
- A scenario, job story, user story, just some way to explain the problem and your expected outcome
- Break down your problem into steps
- Provide code examples (provide code snippets, in a gist for example, name the files and try and order them in execution if applicable)
- Provide screenshots if its a visual problem
- With a video
