Re: Whatcha thinking about now? (v2)
I realize I come from an older generation, COBOL, NEAT 3, RPG, FORTRAN, C, C+, etc but many times the junior programmers often got the task of running and testing instead of developing. In part because if something failed we got the task of going through the code line by line to see what failed and why. In the process of "Testing" and "Running" we were in fact learning to develop our own programming skills and knowledge of the languages.
If you could follow the execution of the program and understand the running of the system that was in fact learning to "program" and develop coding techniques. It was learning the logic of system operations and routines, sub-routines.
I admit I know basically nothing about JAVA. Heck even less about how the modern IT office works except to the extent of people I occasionally talk to. But 3 months seems really to be no time at all. Given you've not revealed any "Experience" level on your part or past job performance 3 months really seems to be nothing to be measured against. Being hired as a "Junior" developer would suggest limited to at most only a college level back ground in my experience. Which again would suggest 3 months is no time at all.
But as I said I come from a different generation so my perspective may differ so consider it or ignore it as you will.
