No Experience

The corporate catch-22 in its purest form. Boss hires you knowing full well you're green as grass, then acts shocked—SHOCKED—when you can't handle senior-level work after two weeks of shadowing someone. It's like hiring a junior dev, giving them legacy spaghetti code with zero documentation, and then wondering why they're drowning. The best part? They knew from day one. The job posting probably said "entry-level" but required 5 years of experience with a framework that's only existed for 3 years. Classic management move: set impossible expectations, watch you fail, then use your inexperience as the excuse they needed all along.
