Discussion on: Why even the simplest task seems like a struggle?

Do they actually ask you questions like "why took you so much time" or is it more that you're afraid of them asking that?

They seem both. On the written aspect of the code review seems no issue but once I go to show the task I get bursted with why and how and SPEAK.

Though I struggle to explain whilst I am interrupted. Also I find hard to explain everything in 5min and be accurate. Also not being able to read whenever comment I type explaining why I do this, or even any piece of documentation is a torture for me.

For me just to explain in a timely manner I need even to reheace whatever I am going to say. For exaple it may take even months to prepair myself for an 2hr presentation

Also in my previous jobs I had code reviews and they were awesome felt like colaboration and not interogation. Also in my MSc I had one colaboration that actually I am not satisfied, I did all of my job and whilst I pushed to try something new me coleagues did not allow me.

So I had no good experience on colaboration, hence in a colaborative environment I fell like I am tortured.
