Should I stay or switch?
So I(~3yoe java dev) recently made my first switch to a product based company. The work used to be good, has good wlb and chill time and flexible timings and wfo. The thing is I'm not getting any PBC vibes. All people in my team/company are from service based only(not judging them as it's inc. me), no super serious work/production bugs/oncall(i don't want to work in such pressure but atleast want to know how people handle it), no similar mindset people, no girls to talk to(yes it's a major issue for me, as I didn't have any female friends to talk to, let alone love) So it's a big concern for me, to build some connection with someone, and even worse thing I got changed to new team, they aren't even assigning proper work and I've been having sooo much free time since past 2 weeks. I've lost motivation to do anything,for many other reasons in life. Ik this is a dream job for many,inc me but now I'm in this i just couldn't get enough of it, please suggest what to do. TIA

  • Interact with the element using click(), sendKeys(), getText() methods

  • Use explicit waits to ensure the element is visible and clickable
