Thrown Into the Deep End: Where’s the Training Manual? 🤯
Ever started a new job thinking you’d get some solid training, only to be tossed into chaos? That’s been my reality for the past six months as an engineer at a giant, highly regulated company. There are endless forms, procedures, and rules, but no one actually explains how any of it fits together. Everyone’s so focused on their tiny piece of the puzzle, it’s impossible to get a straight answer from anyone.
My manager swears by "learning on the job," which really means, "figure it out yourself." I spend most days banging my head against the wall, trying to get even the smallest bit of guidance. Most emails go unanswered, and when someone does reply, it’s so vague it just adds to my confusion. The only training we get is hours of generic "quality management" nonsense that has nothing to do with my actual work.
Honestly, I’m at my wit’s end. Has anyone else dealt with this? How do you survive in a place where everyone’s an expert in nothing and you’re left to sink or swim? Any advice would be a lifesaver right now. 😩
