You don't get to pick your mentors. They just happen. I have a lot of people I consider mentors, and none were "assigned" to me. And the ones that were assigned

You don't get to pick your mentors. They just happen. I have a lot of people I consider mentors, and none were "assigned" to me. And the ones that were assigned? They tended to be the absolute worst people to learn from, if for no other reason than they felt they had to impart wisdom and be smarter and justify being a "mentor".
Learn from him, sure. Maybe that means learning what not to do. But "mentor" isn't the word you're looking for here, I don't think.

- iurisilvio 13y agoThat is the answer! I already had this problem too. You can learn a lot, even if the mentor is awful. You will be challenged a lot to put your point of view in the code, maybe you even discover you are wrong about your arguments. If you really think you can't learn anything from him, probably he is the right person, you have a lot to learn.
