...my job ends up sucking already. Had a complete bugger of a day today. One of the other women who works there decided to tell me how I should be conducting my training. This included her overruling my exisiting training format which has been constructed especially for, erm, trainees. I don't mind her giving me "constructive" criticism however she just seems to attack. She never lets me speak and continuously cuts me off or talks over me. It's so frustrating. Whilst we were having a "stand-off" my manager just sat there mmm-ing in agreement and everything we BOTH said and didn't actually provide me with any info on what I should do after getting under-minded by the person who has been there forever.
I can understand the fact I've only been there 3 weeks and this woman has been there for years and years and knows the job inside out however I have opinions and feelings too. The way she broached the subject was out of order. Along with the way she spoke to me and put across her argument i.e. rammed it down my throat until I gave in. God I'm getting so irate again just thinking about it!!
I don't know what to do really. I did stand up to her and challenged what she was saying although she pretty much ignored me and just carried on talking whenever I tried to get a word in. This is gonna be interesting over the next few months... It's times like this I wonder what I've let myself in for. I was so close to bursting into tears at my desk! That would have been pretty embarrassing. That's 2 days in a row... I'm just finding it so hard just now because I'm so far out of my comfort zone it's scary. Any time I ask for help I'm either ignored or looked at as if I'm the biggest hinderence of all time.
Bugger it.
