This is my third week in my new job. One day I feel I like it there, and the next I don't.
Today I was the ONLY person in my office. I have been doing my job for two weeks. I am untrained in ALL the systems I need to actually DO said job, so I can't access any of them. I am unable to answer queries fully and I'm literally wiling away the days taking notes. WHY my managers felt it was at all acceptable to have just me holding the fort when I can do diddly squat is beyond me. I'm out of my depth and whilst I know that there's always a period of adjustment- this isn't a job I even chose so I'm struggling to "hang in there". I haven't dreaded getting up for work for a couple of years and it's not a feeling I want to get back either... but things aren't going to get better. More staff are leaving in the next few weeks due to cuts, and I have a feeling my training will be overlooked whilst other matters take precedence.
urgh. Still, I can't grumble too much because it's a job, on the same pay and I know these are hard to come by right now. Now if the Tory's would just vanish off the face of the Earth... I might feel a tad more optimistic about getting a job I know I'd like...
*sigh*
