Here's something I rarely brag about: I got fired after 6 weeks on my first software development job right out of college. Reason: Incompetence, basically. And relative to the (in hindsight) ridiculous task that was given to me- creating a billing system in 4 weeks- true! 1/
Oh yeah just to be clear, that's not what I meant. I thought specifically I couldn't do software so I thought...let's try something else instead. And I'll tell you what- I learned A LOT, both technically and in terms of how to work with a team, esp as a software engineer. 1/

I actually think QA/automation work made me a much better engineer. I've used to say this all the time at my old company. Because of this, I was the guy who kept advocating good testing practices for engineers (but that most often falls on deaf ears). /3
