Just left my job today (was my 2nd day)

Was given assurances during my interview that I was to be in a litigation department. The first day was great, but today they decided to uproot me from litigation and put me as a person who calls insurance companies for claim or adjuster info. I had not even performed one task in litigation, since I was still in training. My boss was confused at the change but could do nothing to stop it. Tried talking to HR and telling them the assurances I was given, but no luck. So, up in hearing the news, I immediately got up, and left. Emailed a letter of resignation and that was it. I just feel really pissed because I was so excited to get started and learn.

Get a job dogsitting to avoid the shittiness of working for a corporation. What could go wrong?

Obligatory “this is my first post” & “I'm using mobile” disclaimer. So I just turned 18 &, due to mental & physical health issues, I'm a high school dropout. I've been wanting to earn some money so I can save up & move out, but we all know how miserable it is being capitalism's bitch. When some lady on the next street over posted that she was looking for someone to stop by & let her dog out every week for the forseeable future, I was pretty stoked at the idea of some reliable, if pitiful, income. It's a start. Holy shit. I think I need a union. It wasn't too bad at first. The deal was that I'd go over every Wednesday at 4 to let the dog into an enclosed space in the yard, watch to make sure she did her business, & then give the dog a…

I’m raging a little

I don’t want to be too specific for privacy reasons but today the higher up/big wig/final boss decided to make suggestions on things I can do in my job ….. things I already FRICKIN do! And things other people do. Things that are actually in their job description. He doesn’t know enough to know what I actually do but thinks he knows enough to suggest what tasks I should be doing. I legit saw red. I’m not a person who gets angry, especially ridiculously angry but I reached that level today. There’s a part of me that wants to say “fine, I quit. Since you seem to know better than me, you can do my job. Have fun”
