Helping teammates with their code can be both rewarding and challenging, especially when the questions seem basic or repetitive. Over time, it’s easy to lose patience and let frustration take over, which can negatively impact both your own work and the confidence of those seeking help. However, by re-embracing patience and humility, you can transform these interactions into opportunities for growth—for both yourself and your teammates. When you set aside judgment and focus on being genuinely helpful, you not only encourage your colleagues in their development journey but also foster a more positive and productive environment for everyone. This shift in mindset can reduce errors in your own work and help you become the kind of supportive, skilled developer that others look up to.
