So I started an inside sales/counter position . I was told I would be trained . Not once has the manager trained me. Instead I rely heavily on all help from my coworker. A few weeks into work I’m now working Half or more of my 8 hrs in the warehouse receiving stock. It’s hard on my body moving heavy large compressors n pipe. Glad they transferred the one warehouse guy. I don’t know how much I can handle

I have been working for this company for over a year. It’s a 500+ person company and I am on the marketing team. Initially it was a department of 5 people. I had been slowly starting to look for new jobs in late January because I was getting more work for no additional pay, and I am needing a change in my career and I would like to change industries. In late January, my coworker quit, leaving all of the website content and copywriting up to me in addition to social media. I didn’t complain about this and took it on but my productivity slowed and my mistakes have increased with the additional meetings, correspondence, and tasks.
