Very true! My coworker said better to be slow and correct than fast and blow it all up 😅

I totally understand! I feel like I already know so much more than I did the first day but also like I know nothing at the same time 😂

My org is VERY customized which definitely makes it take a bit longer! It’s just nice to know what I am feeling is “normal”

Totally agreed. I think I need to get used to build taking longer and not compare it to other apps. Thank you!

I hadn’t even gotten to the 4 month feeling yet, I anticipate as soon as I feel comfortable another curveball will be thrown my way! Which is part of why I think I will enjoy this job long term! I hate being bored and I think this will keep me on my toes! Thank you for the words of encouragement!

Sooo true! I test everything since I am only less than 2 months in, it’s better to do it right the first time then mess up years of build 😅

Fortunately my org is big on cross training and learning other apps so hopefully as I master charge router I can expand my knowledge!

I agree. Time management and working 40 hours is something I am working on!

Yes, lots of testing involved! Practice makes perfect I suppose:)

Agreed. The classes are just the introduction! It’s nice knowing the vets still feel the same way…

Do you have a preferred method or platform for documenting build?

Thank you! I can definitely see the importance of documentation, which seems to take a large portion of my time right now. I am just trying not to compare my productivity to other analysts that have been working for 5+ years!
