| May 17, 2023 at 2:15 | comment | added | Adam Burke | Something about the phrasing suggests you aren't working on tasks for the team yet? QA and software have a big element of learn-by-doing craft skill, though. Is there anything stopping you taking a task and working on it twenty times slower than another team member? That would also structure your reading and googling, rather than it being disconnected theory. | |

| May 14, 2023 at 0:44 | comment | added | Job_September_2020 | Do you honestly love to work as a QA, which may be a good fit for some people and not for others ? What is the ideal job that you really love to work for the rest of your life ? -- In the long run, you will only be able to do a great job at what you love to do. | |

It belongs on Interpersonal Skills SE or possibly Parenting SE. - And its title should be "What should I do if my abusive family won't let me study and insists that I work at a job I can't even do?". | |

| May 13, 2023 at 11:09 | comment | added | nvoigt♦ | Where are you located? What you say about your family and the library makes me think that my advice for Europe might not be suited for your location. Can you get a normal, formal education for a job? | |
