Hello friend.  I’m a software engineer and have been at a place for about a year now. How do you handle circumstances when you just look like an absolute idiot and begin to feel incompetent despite not being incompetent? I knew my shit today but literally couldn’t get it out and as a result I’m afraid I lost credibility and reputation. Obviously it isn’t the end of the world but how do you handle these situations? I’m sure I’ll cool off and by the end of the week I won’t give a fuck like shit like this happens to me somewhat often anyways.
